that's what bluez reports... so... not much to be done. most devices report
zero.no signal from my experience.

yeah. i crammed a whole lot of actions into a small space. you learn the icons
quickly enough and the tooltip is there to de-mystify it :)

modules choose this for the popup - they did make different choices. :) i
really dont know which should be default. i certainly want the clock calendar
to stay up as i sometimes pop it up and refer to it... :)

aaah this is a "you can't win" thing. what about file.tar.gz ? :) or
file.svg.gz ... these exist and are common enough. :) which do you pick?

aaaah missing a clip :) fixed.

the priority slider in the screen setup determines the screen order like 0, 1,
2, 3 etc. with the highest priority being 0, and then lower priority values
after that. they idea is you assign priorities in  way where you get the
behaviour you want. if you want your primary screen (Screen 0) to migrate to
the external monitor when it plugs in, then have the external mon priority 80
and internal priority 50 (for example). if you want the external to just extend
(be a lower priority screen) and things not migrate, then have the internal be
50, and external be 20, for example. you can assign different priorities to
different monitors you might plug in (projectors or other things) to have
different behavior. if you have 3 or 4 or more screens you can assign priorities
in a way to get just about any kind of migration or "stay where you are"
behavior that you like. try it out.

if all monitors are the same priority, then the sort from left to right in x
position... so left most screen is screen 0, then the one right of that is
screen 1, the next to the right is screen 2 etc.

that's what you're seeing - since it's on the left it takes over as screen 0
and all your content moves over to it... :)
