I love displayplacer. Thank you for making it! Reading through some of the source code and its use of those undocumented APIs was also really cool.

p.s. check out my pull request #62 for a bug fix! Funnily, it's for a scaling/HiDPI related issue. (though only matters when you don't use "mode: <>")

Hey Jake, Does displayplacer have an option to control brightness? I'm running a Hackintosh and ran into displayplacer as the Mac OS equivalent for xrandr but I can't seem to find any command to control brightness.

Are you still maintaining the project? It looks like it's been a while since the last commit or release.

It still works great for me! And the only issue I’ve ran into can be entirely avoided just by using mode numbers directly instead of specifying each setting.
