There is a Tools/Reinitialize External Displays option in the app menu + you can add a keyboard shortcut to it. Maybe that works? |

Hi,
I have Macbook Pro M1 and LG C3 connecting with a USB + HDMI hub.
BetterDisplay have "reinitialize this display on wake" enabled for LG C3.
If I turn on LG C3 for few seconds, after it shows "No Signal", then I wake up and unblock my Macbook, it works fine, LG C3 is able to display Macbook desktop.
After that, if I keep LG C3 power on, I lock/unlock Macbook, it connects to LG C3 without any issue.
But If I forgot to turn on LG C3 first, I wake up Macbook first, then turn on LG C3, LG C3 will keep showing "No Signal".
I have to unplug and plug my hub to get LG C3 work again.
I'm wondering is there a button or action I can take in BetterDisplay to force reinitialize the external monitor, not just at wake time.
I see there another option "reinitialize this display on unlock" seems to do the trick, but I have lock and unblock, it's annonying.
Thank you
