Usage

$ monitordisplay -m MODE_NAME

…which equals:

$ xrand \
	--output SYSTEM_SCREEN_NAME1 --primary --mode 1920x1080 --pos 0x0 \
	--output SYSTEM_SCREEN_NAME2 --mode 1024x768 --pos 1920x0 \
	--output SYSTEM_SCREEN_NAME3 --off

Then you can run:

$ monitordisplay -t 
# OR
$ monitordisplay -tbar

…which equals:

$ xrand \
	--output SYSTEM_SCREEN_NAME2 --mode 1024x768 --pos 0x0 \
	--output SYSTEM_SCREEN_NAME1 --mode 1920x1080 --primary --pos 1024x0 \
	--output SYSTEM_SCREEN_NAME3 --off

You can remove the parameter --off with -s:

$ monitordisplay -m MODE_NAME -s

It equals:

$ xrand \
	--output SYSTEM_SCREEN_NAME1 --primary --mode 1920x1080 --pos 0x0 \
	--output SYSTEM_SCREEN_NAME2 --mode 1024x768 --pos 1920x0
