Picture resolution switcher how to#

Well, when we say how to change display resolution we mean to say, change from file and from there set upģ. You can independently manage multiple monitors or mirror one to the other. If you’d prefer to have the same image shown on each monitor rather than having them run independently, you can enable “Mirror displays”. If you have multiple displays, you can individually configure the settings for each monitor by selecting the monitor in the “layout” panel at the top. The resolution settings allow you to configure the detail the monitor can show. “Fractional scaling” allows you to manually configure more precise scaling settings to your personal preferences. “Use interface scale” provides a couple of preconfigured settings for interface scaling that may help users on large monitors or who prefer larger interfaces. “Rotation” is used to rotate the displayed image to match a rotated monitor, this is only really useful if you have chosen to mount your monitor vertically rather than horizontally.

The “Refresh Rate” is how many times your screen updates per second, typically this will be 60Hz, unless you specifically have a high refresh rate monitor. “Native resolution” refers to the physical number of pixels in your monitor. The “Resolution” you pick should be the native resolution of your monitor and will generally be the recommended setting. Press the Super key, then type “Display” and hit enter.

Tip: The “Super” key is the name that many Linux distributions use to refer to the Windows key or the Apple “Command” key, while avoiding any risk of trademark issues.
