Exactly what the title says, whatever resolution or scaling I provide, nothing happens. Listing modes and displays does work however.

@koengabriels please provide more details..what arguments do you use and is there any output? Which Mac are you running this?

On a MacBook Pro 16" (running 10.15.6) these commands work:

/Applications/RDM.app/Contents/MacOS/SetResX -w 1152 -h 720 -s 2
/Applications/RDM.app/Contents/MacOS/SetResX -w 1344 -h 840 -s 2
/Applications/RDM.app/Contents/MacOS/SetResX -w 1536 -h 960 -s 2
/Applications/RDM.app/Contents/MacOS/SetResX -w 1792 -h 1120 -s 2
/Applications/RDM.app/Contents/MacOS/SetResX -w 2048 -h 1280 -s 2
/Applications/RDM.app/Contents/MacOS/SetResX -w 3072 -h 1920 -s 1

I found running the command where the scale is in decimal works for me (from "2" to "2.0")

Command: /Applications/RDM.app/Contents/MacOS/SetResX -w 1920 -h 1200 -s 2.0

@koengabriels, does this work for you?
