How can I force fullscreen on my right screen?
I have 2 screens: 17" on left and 22" screen on right side.
When I watch a movie with VLC and want to watch on full-screen on my 22" screen (the right one), I move my VLC window in right screen and then click on full-screen => no problem.
BUT when using Firefox and watching streaming video, watching on full-screen is always on 17" screen (left one).
How can I force full-screen to be on my 22" screen (right one) ?
After reading severals questions about the subject "multiple-monitors", I've found the solution.
In this answer I've discovered the existance of file ~/.config/monitors.xml
. (thank you "pamar84")
So I did this:
- do a backup of this file
cp ~/.config/monitors.xml ~/.config/monitors.xml-bkp
- open this file
gedit ~/.config/monitors.xml
- this file was containing 3 configurations !!!
So I did some cleaning:- I've found the configuration that I'm using and remove the 2 others.
- also set my left screen to be the primary one.
- I've found the configuration that I'm using and remove the 2 others.
Now with such nice ~/.config/monitors.xml
file, Firefox is not disoriented anymore and have the good behavior:
- when my window is left side and I choose full-screen => full-screen is left screen
- when my window is right side and I choose full-screen => full-screen is right screen
Here is the content of the cleaned ~/.config/monitors.xml
file:
