RoboA causa di un fastidioso bug di Plasma 6 (X11) ho provato a usare Wayland. Ottimi progressi per quanto riguarda il fractional scaling, tuttavia ancora alcuni software risultano sfocati (come yast, ma anche tutti i flatpak...)
Che gran peccato.
Sono passati circa 8 anni da quando i laptop con schermo da 14 pollici sono diventati la norma, e il fatto che ancora sia difficile scalare l'interfaccia è davvero fastidioso.

Fractional Scaling, y'all!
KDE Plasma (X11) 5.27 on Debian 12 with 150% fractional scaling.
The window with the teensy mouse is Nheko, a Matrix client.

P.S.: Apparently, flatpak is the cultprit.
shared public horse .not biteyIf Qt6 is messing up when your font DPI is set higher than 96 and UI scaling is 1, it may be because it's calculating a fake UI scaling factor as ${your_dpi}/96 and applying it as a float, unlike Qt5 which rounds it to the nearest int. The result is pretty ugly for the builtin Fusion style: UI line widths end up inconsistent within the same widget.
To make Qt6 consistent with Qt5 on highish-DPI, not-exactly-Retina displays, set
QT_SCALE_FACTOR_ROUNDING_POLICY=Round
in your environment. Ref https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/highdpi.html#environment-variable-reference
kerelHappy to have discovered #fractionalscaling for my multi-monitor setup in #GNOME (using 125% on one device)!
I'm aware of the potential downsides of oversampling + down-scaling, but eager to see how it performs for me.

Monoka@GTK Is the fractional scaling described here [1] for GTK4.14 already the actual true fractional scaling that was described here [2]? This would be amazing. I was afraid that the have to wait until #gtk5

NiceMicroI know it is an ongoing effort to make the Linux desktop more friendly to high-DPI screens, and variable DPI multi-monitor setups... I just want to say that terminal apps don't have this issue if you can easily switch font size in your terminal emulator 😆
I wish there was a way of using fractional scaling (on Linux) without making all monochrome images in the web browser look like crap because they're getting subtly scaled, even when you try to match the scale factor precisely.
(and I'm doing 125% fractional scaling, so it's not like it's a really *weird* number)
It's kind of sad when you're walking down memory lane on infinitemac.org, and it looks like blurry trash. :'(
Thic’n TiredTook a couple #Linux distros out for a spin today on my Lenovo x1 Carbon laptop. #EndeavourOS #SolusOS #MXLinux #NixOS to drop names.
It’s been a loooooong time since I looked at desktop environments as well. #FractionalScaling seems to be an issue still for most DEs. #HIDPI is life, get with it #LXQT & #XFCE. Also not impressed with the direction of #KDEplasma or #Gnome to be honest. #Budgie is great, and I enjoy seeing it get a chance in other distributions too.
#Fedora has been a favorite of mine for a long time, but seeing what #IBM has done with limiting #RedHat after they gutted #CentOS removes my ability to support them anymore.
Anyone have any suggestions?
