How to detect displays in OS X 10.9 Mavericks

Problem:

How do I detect displays in OS X Mavericks? The Systems Preferences option to detect displays seems to be missing.

Solution:

While in the "Displays" Systems Preferences panel, press the "option" key and the "Detect Displays" button will appear when using OS X Mavericks.

Notes:

This was tested to work in OS X 10.9 and 10.9.1. Your mileage may vary in other versions.
