the Screen property localizedName returns a none unique dynamic name that doesn't allow a specific selection of a Screen on every OS boot. the name consists of the vendor name and model name (eg DELL U2723QE). if the same model display is connected to the system several times, macOS starts to add numbers to the localizedName (eg DELL U2723QE (1)), that may not be associated to the same Screen on every OS boot or connecting the display. it also changes the name of the first connected display by adding that numeration. this makes it impossible specify the proper screen with the screen-name option every time. to circumvent this we remove the enumeration from the name and instead add the serial number to the display-names property. this makes the actual Screen unique and none dynamic. furthermore the selection of a screen by name will check for equality for the old localizedName, simple name without enumeration, serial number and the combined name with serial number. this makes it possible to select the screen by either of those names and identifiers, and keeps backwards compatibility with the old behaviour. Examples: localized name (System Settings name): DELL U2723QE, DELL U2723QE (1) simple name: DELL U2723QE serial number: 123456789 combined name: DELL U2723QE (123456789) |
