I'm tired of rearranging my monitors every time I disable my middle one to play on my PS5, then re-enable it for work. Is there a way to automate this process? It feels like I'm wasting time that I could use for better things. When I disable the middle monitor, the other two are too far apart, and I can't set them up the way I want. When I enable it again, the middle monitor overlaps the others, which is not ideal. Is this just a limitation of using Linux? Please, no suggestions to switch to X11 as that's not an option for me.

Have you thought about scripting the monitor settings for both options? If you set it up right, you could make a launcher that disables the middle monitor when you want to play and then reverts the settings when you finish. That way, you don’t have to fiddle with it each time!
I tried scripting a couple of times, but I couldn't get it to work as expected. I guess I'm missing something in the setup.
