Sorry, after more testing I saw that my explanations are not good. In fact, I see two different problems (which might go in 2 different bug reports...) :
If the above box is tick and an external screen connected : - nothing appears -> - when you manually open "xfce4-display-settings", it also starts "xfce4-display-settings -m" -> without doing anything other than connecting the screen, "xfce4 -display-settings -m" should automatically start, or the text across the box needs to be changed, for example with "When this window is opened after the connection of an external screen, automatically configure the screen." If the above box is untick and an external screen connected : - nothing appears -> normal in my sense - when you start "xfce4-display-settings -m" via command line or keybiard shorcut, it automatically open a other window of "xfce4-display-settings -m" -> the result is two opened windows, really disturbing for the user. It should check if one is already opened. Sorry for the laborious explanations... Thanks for your time and work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1369698 Title: xfce4-display-settings does not show up when connecting new screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-settings/+bug/1369698/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
