QLC+ supports a number of command line parameters to automate/extend some functionalities
on startup.
Using command line parameters can be tricky depending on the operating system you're using:
-c or --closebuttonDescription: Define a position for a close button in the virtual console. The button can be used to close QLC+. Only has an effect in kiosk mode (see -k) and is most useful when in fullscreen mode without a window manager. Parameters: x,y,w,h
Examples: |
-d or --debugDescription: Enable debug mode and optionally set the output level. Note that since 4.8.0 messages for level DEBUG (0) are not included in released binaries. Parameters: Level (see QtMsgType)
Examples: |
-f or --fullscreenDescription: Start the application in fullscreen mode Parameters: Method (either 'normal' or 'resize')
Examples: |
-g or --logDescription: Log debug messages to a file ($HOME/QLC+.log) Parameters: None
Examples: |
-h or --helpDescription: Display command-line help (only in Linux & OS X) Parameters: None
