I really liked the display settings built-in to MacOS, very straightforward. Unfortunately, with Ventura, they now hid the arrangement in a separate options window that takes extra clicks to reach. A step backwards :/
Settings in Ventura are a step back. Just…the whole thing. It’s gracious to call it an amateur effort.
This hasn't been updated in a while. What I really want from this kind of tool is the ability to take a snapshot of my ALL display settings, and just click something on my desktop or bind a keyboard shortcut, or run a command which will restore it - exactly how it should be. This would include, exact screen positioning, refresh rate, resolutions etc. I don't know what triggers it, but MacOS is really bad at changing…

The closest I've found to doing this is Mosaic. I paid for it because it was so useful. You can bind keyboard shortcuts and make any selected window snap to a particular screen and size. With the introduction of Ventura's Stage Manager (which is a poorly disguised Task Bar that should be at the bottom of the screen occupying all the unused real estate next to/around the dock), I can use Mosaic to snap my windows to t…

There’s a tool called “Later” that does this: https://getlater.app/
