unfortunately current bsp doesn't support this as default, if customer needs support this, need change weston by themselves, maybe you can refer to the link as below:

Hi NXP,
We are using version yocto 2.5, kernel 4.14.98.
Following the recommendation, we applied the patch '[weston,2/4] weston: Move output position setting to compositor.' After compiling, an error occurs as follows:

compositor/weston-main.o: In function `wet_set_output_position':

as I known, other customers use qt+eglfs to achieve this, but nxp doesn't have official patch or sample code for this
