Created attachment 9021 this is xfce4-display-settings I want to reorder the profiles in the display settings: under the "advanced settings" tab, there's a table that contains all the saved profiles customized by the user. I would like to change the order in the UI to set the preferred profile when an external monitor is plugged in. In my personal experience, I had to add a configuration with xrandr to set the same resolution to the internal monitor as the external monitor. So I made two profiles (see the attachment): "1360x768 solo monitor esterno" >> that means: "1360x768 only the external monitor" let's call this (1) "1360x768 schermi duplicati" >> that means: "1360x768 duplicated screens" let's call this (2) Every time the monitor is plugged in, the option (1) is taken. I tried erasing these two profiles and saving them in the opposite order. But nothing changes. I want the option (2) to be taken when the cable HDMI is attached, instead of (1).

Only numbering the profiles with numbers as: 1. profile A 2. profile B where A and B are the name of the profiles in the comment above ↑ I suggest that might reorder the names.
