Lack of contributions and suitable hardware setup. There was a patch for making 
the target screen configurable via an environment variable which never made it 
to integration. We are now reviving it for 5.6 at 
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/166117/


Additional patches for discovering and exposing all available screens as 
separate QScreens are welcome. Not entirely sure about the feasibility, 
especially when it comes to discovering and monitoring the connected outputs, 
but it is definitely worth a try.


Best regards,

Laszlo

Subject: [Development] Are there any limitations on implementing the changing 
of the screen for a QWindow on systems using EGLFS?


I looked at the code for the EGLFS BRCM integration and the screen it uses is 
hard-coded. After trying some test code for Dispmanx it seems that it is fairly 
straight forward to change the screen it uses.

My question is: Are there any limitations to implementing the functions that 
would allow us to change the screen using QWindows->setScreen()?

The reason for why I'm asking is, because I'd like to implement this, but I'd 
like to know whether if this is not implemented beacuse of some limitations or 
because of lack of intrest/contributors?
