Disable Cube when multi-monitor detected #47

Closed quazardous closed 2 years ago

quazardous commented 2 years ago

The Motivation

As many nomad users, I often plug and unplug my laptop from its dock. At home with the dock, I use a multi-monitor layout. With my layout the Cube is not very adequate.

The Solution

Add a checkbox to disable the Cube when multi-monitor is detected.

The Alternatives

I can disable it myself.

Hi there; thanks for the suggestion!

However, I would really want to try adding proper multi-monitor support before such a workaround. Until then, you can achieve what you want with a script, I guess. For example, this looks promising (although I did not try it). The commands for enabling or disabling the extension are as follows:

gnome-extensions enable desktop-cube@schneegans.github.com
gnome-extensions disable desktop-cube@schneegans.github.com
