Title: tray resolution switcher for cinnamon?
Guppy 22 Jan 2019
is there an easy resolution switcher for cinnamon?

currently I am using these scripts;

4k.sh
#!/bin/bash
gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.interface scaling-factor 2
xrandr -s 3840x2160
cinnamon --replace --clutter-display=:0 2> /dev/null &

1080p.sh
#!/bin/bash
gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.interface scaling-factor 1
xrandr -s 1920x1080 
cinnamon --replace --clutter-display=:0 2> /dev/null &


and it works - but having to navigate to my scripts folder and click, then click "run" in the 'this is a text file' is al little annoying.

surely there is an easier solution?
