FightGravity Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Hey, thanks a lot for the tutorial and the files, this is exactly what I have been looking for! However, I am running into a problem: When trying to move the "DisplayProduct..." file into the /System/Library/Displays/Contents/Resources/Overrides/DisplayVendorID-10ac/ folder, I do not get permissions to this. I tried granting permission both via Finder and via Terminal, did not work (i have no permissions for changing permissions...) Does anyone have a hint how to work around this? Thanks a lot in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FightGravity Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Found the solution for gaining permissions to the Systems folder: http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/193368/what-is-the-rootless-feature-in-el-capitan-really?newreg=068dc403fea74a3eb1e434b955924023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanislav Makhinov Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Hi, my new Dell U2515H is connected via DisplayPort to a Intel HD4600. I like this monitor very much but with the native resolution of 2560x1440 pixel system-font looks really small. So I activated HiDPI from the terminal: sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist DisplayResolutionEnabled -bool true but with the "1280x720 HiDPI" resolution the screen is to small After a long search I found a solution - display overrides. For this I put an override-file 'DisplayProductID-d06f' with the code below to /System/Library/Displays/Contents/Resources/Overrides/DisplayVendorID-10ac/DisplayProductID-d06f <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>DisplayProductName</key> <string>Dell U2515H (HiDPI)</string> <key>DisplayVendorID</key> <integer>4268</integer> <key>DisplayProductID</key> <integer>53359</integer> <key>scale-resolutions</key> <array> <data>AAAPAAAACHAAAAAB</data> <!-- 3840x2160 to get 1920x1080 HiDPI --> <data>AAAMgAAABwgAAAAB</data> <!-- 3200x1800 to get 1600x900 HiDPI --> <data>AAALQAAABlQAAAAB</data> <!-- 2880x1620 to get 1440x810 HiDPI --> </array> </dict> </plist> The Monitor use another ProductID if it's connected to HDMI. Therefore I need another override file. To verify the ProductID, I use this from terminal: ioreg -l -w0 -d0 -r -c AppleDisplay | grep ID | grep -v IO This override has a patched EDID to support RGB color mode with HDMI (see http://embdev.net/topic/284710 for more info) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>DisplayProductName</key> <string>Dell U2515H (HiDPI + RGB)</string> <key>IODisplayEDID</key> <data>AP///////wAQrG/QTEE0MCkZAQSlNx94JkRVqVVNnSYPUFSlSwCzANEAcU+p QIGAd4ABAQEBVl4AoKCgKVAwIDUAKTchAAAaAAAA/wBYWFhYWFhYWFhYWFgK AAAA/ABERUxMIFUyNTE1SAogAAAA/QA4Vh5xHgEKICAgICAgAKM=</data> <key>DisplayVendorID</key> <integer>4268</integer> <key>DisplayProductID</key> <integer>53360</integer> <key>scale-resolutions</key> <array> <data>AAAPAAAACHAAAAAB</data> <!-- 3840x2160 to get 1920x1080 HiDPI --> <data>AAAMgAAABwgAAAAB</data> <!-- 3200x1800 to get 1600x900 HiDPI --> <data>AAALQAAABlQAAAAB</data> <!-- 2880x1620 to get 1440x810 HiDPI --> </array> </dict> </plist> Reboot and done For easy resolution switching I wrote a command-line tool based on RetinaDisplayMenu. I put SetDisplayResolution to /usr/local/bin and use Karabiner to create the keyboard shortcuts.
