Monitor settings

Use gnoblin.configure.monitors for preferences that apply to connected monitors.

Privacy screen

Set privacy_screen to request the privacy screen state on monitors that support it:

gnoblin.configure {
    monitors = {
        privacy_screen = true,
    },
}

privacy_screen accepts true, false, or "inherit". It defaults to "inherit" when omitted. true requests that privacy screens turn on; false requests that they turn off. "inherit" follows the system privacy screen preference.

Gnoblin applies an explicit choice for the current session and does not save it to the system preference. The request applies globally. Monitors without a privacy screen are unaffected. Remove the setting or use "inherit" to follow the system preference again.

Runtime Lua can temporarily override this setting with gnoblin.settings.override("monitors.privacy_screen", value). Revoking that override restores this configured value. If the config omits privacy_screen, revoking it follows the system preference. See the output API for the state and change events, and overrides for how they end.
