Display Layout Switcher

Change resolution, refresh rate, HDR and your dual monitor or multi-monitor layout from one Stream Deck key on Windows. Set Projection switches like Windows + P (Win+P): PC screen only, Duplicate (mirror), Extend or Second screen only. Toggle Display disables your second monitor (or another) and turns it back on. Resolution, refresh rate and layout changes go back after 15 seconds unless you keep them.

Save your display settings once as a monitor profile, such as Desk, Gaming, Streaming or TV: the primary (main) display, which displays are on, positions, resolution, refresh rate (Hz), orientation and HDR.

Features

Switch Profile: one key per saved layout. The key shows ACTIVE when that layout is in use

Save Profile: saves the current layout under the key name, rotation and HDR included

Cycle Profiles: steps through the layouts you choose with one key

Set Primary: makes one monitor the main display and keeps the others where they are

Set Projection: each Win+P mode on its own key

Toggle Display: turns one monitor off, the others stay; pressed again, it comes back where it was

Resolution: the next size, or one size you pick, such as 1920x1080 for a game, then back to 2560x1440. Only sizes the monitor offers. The key shows the size in use

Refresh Rate: the next rate, or one rate you pick, such as 60 Hz to 144 Hz. The key shows the rate in use

HDR: one monitor or all monitors with HDR, on, off or toggled. The key shows whether HDR is on

Identify Displays: shows each monitor's number in this plugin and its name, large, for 3 seconds, without taking the focus

Stream Deck + dial: turn for the resolution or refresh rate (the touch strip shows it), push to keep it

Layout picture: Save, Switch and Cycle keys can draw their layout, the main display in blue

Safe switching: resolution, refresh rate and layout changes come back by themselves after 15 seconds unless kept, also when Stream Deck restarts the plugin within 2 minutes. If HDR switches on only some monitors, they all go back as they were. Each key reads the monitor's settings first and turns red if one is unreadable

English and Japanese

Made for

Gaming: second monitor off, 1080p at 144 Hz and HDR on for a game, all back afterwards

Streaming, work, TV: one layout for each, one key each

Presentations and docks: duplicate to a projector, or second screen only

FAQ

Can a Stream Deck key change my screen resolution? Yes. Put Resolution on a key and pick the monitor and sizes. If the picture is wrong, wait 15 seconds and the old size comes back.

Can I turn HDR on or off on all my monitors with one key? Yes, the ones with HDR. Put HDR on a key and choose All displays.

Which monitor is 1 and which is 2 in the plugin's lists? Press Identify Displays: each screen shows its number there for 3 seconds.

Does it need administrator rights? No. It runs as your user.

Privacy

Runs entirely on your PC. No account, no online service, no telemetry.

Limitations

Display scaling, color profiles, night light, brightness and monitor inputs are not changed; Windows keeps those per monitor

Windows may move the screens next to a resized one so they still touch

HDR only where Windows offers it for that monitor, at once, without the countdown. If Stream Deck stops while several monitors switch HDR, some may stay switched: press the key again

A monitor plugged in during the countdown stays off when the previous setup comes back

Duplicate (mirror) screens share one resolution and refresh rate

Set Projection uses the last layout of that kind Windows remembers

Not on the lock screen or in some remote desktop sessions

Requirements

Windows 10 or later, Stream Deck app 6.9 or later. Not for Mac

New Resolution action: one key steps a monitor to its next screen resolution, or sets one size you pick; only the sizes the monitor offers, at the refresh rate it has there, with the same 15-second countdown (press again to keep it, or wait and the previous size comes back by itself). On Stream Deck +, put Resolution on a dial: turn to choose the size, push to keep it. The HDR action can now switch all monitors with HDR at once. If one refuses, the others are switched back as they were; when they cannot be, the key turns red and says so. New Identify Displays action shows the number and name of each monitor on that screen for 3 seconds, without taking the focus. Your keys and saved layouts stay as they are.
