screen resolution command
I have an Acer Aspire One D260 net book. It has Ubuntu 10.10 on it.
The screen is 10.1 inch. It's default display is 1024x600 (smaller sizes are available in Gnome display manager).
I need to increase the screen resolution, when needed, to use things like the standard PDF print dialogue to 768 in height and then easily change it back.
Using this command in the terminal increases the height: xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode "1024x600" --scale "1x1.28".
This changes it back to default: xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode "1024x600" --scale "1x1".
Is there a way to store these commands in an 'icon' that can be kept on the bar where the Applications, Places and System menus are ?
Ideally one 'icon' i.e. click once to change resolution and click again to change back.
Thanks for any help offered.
