Resurrecting this somewhat. The solutions suggested above are fine if you only have one monitor, but immediately cause issues if you have more than one (and they're not similar in size and resolution).
Here, on two out of my three screens, everything is exactly as I want. The third one is a little large. Rendering at .8 or .9 would be great. What I'd currently have to do is: 1. shrink text 2. shrink dock 3. increase fractional scaling of the other two screens -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1724037 Title: Allow GNOME fractional scaling below 100% To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mutter/+bug/1724037/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
