man tdecmshell produces no manual entry. tdecmshell --help-all doesn't seem to show what I'm looking for AFAICT.
What I'd like is to open 'tdemshell xserver', then run an xrandr command to change DPI, finally run 'tdemshell xserver' to compare the before and after impact from the xrandr command. It doesn't work. The second tdecmshell run simply focuses the original window. Is there any way to do what I want? If not, is it a feature that might be added to 14.1 if I filed a feature request bug?
For now what I have to do as workaround is as shown here (using xterm) :-( : http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/dpi108vs133.jpg
No idea what effort that would require, have to see how the software is done. Wouldn't it be easier to open the first tdecmshell xserver, take a snapshot, make the xrandr changes, then open the tdecmshell again and compare? Just as a temporary workaround at least?
Easier/workaround is as was done in the screenshot. What you suggest amounts to making screenshots of screenshots and somehow displaying the earlier as if realtime (without using an image viewer), as the purpose of the exercise is to demonstrate differing concurrent states to others, not the ability to display images that could have been constructed arbitrarily from some other environment.
