## Displays
## Display layout
`blob.displays` arranges monitors and assigns wallpapers per monitor. Opened
with `Super + Shift + Ctrl + D` or the Blob menu's Displays row.
### Monitors tab
`blob.display-layout` arranges monitors. Opened with `Super + Shift + Ctrl + D`

one applies the new position immediately. Edges snap to a neighbour's edge

Per-monitor controls: mode, scale, enable or disable, and mirror.

### Wallpapers tab
Rotation and primary-monitor selection are not implemented. `DisplayModel` reads
`transform` and round-trips it, so a rotated monitor is drawn and preserved
correctly, but nothing in the widget sets it.
A thumbnail grid of `~/wallpapers`. Clicking one assigns it to the selected

## Wallpapers
`blob.displays` picks wallpapers. Opened with `Super + Alt + W` or the Blob
menu's Wallpaper row.
A thumbnail grid of `~/wallpapers`, with a row of chips selecting the target:
"All monitors" sets the global wallpaper through `blob-bg-set`, and a specific
output assigns just that monitor through `blob-bg-monitor`, which symlinks the
image under `~/.local/state/blob/backgrounds/<output>`. An output with its own
wallpaper is marked with an asterisk.
`blob.background` already drew one window per screen but pointed them all at the
same image. It now resolves per screen: a monitor with an assignment shows it,
and a monitor without one shows the global wallpaper from `blob-bg-set`. The
crossfade machinery stays on the global path only, so an assigned monitor swaps
without the reveal animation rather than risking that code.

| Command | Does |
| --- | --- |
| `blob bg set <image>` | set the global wallpaper |
| `blob bg monitor <output> <image>` | assign a wallpaper to one monitor |
| `blob bg monitor <output> --clear` | fall back to the global wallpaper |
| `blob bg monitor --list` | show assignments |
| `blob display arrange list` | print the layout as monitor keywords |
| `blob display arrange apply <kw>` | apply a keyword now |
| `blob display arrange reset` | reload, restoring monitors.lua |
Both widgets share `Ui/Chip.qml`, `Ui/Card.qml` and `Ui/CardIconButton.qml`
rather than carrying their own copies.
