Bug ID: 367499
Summary: usability regression: GTK+>3.16.x results in too small
GTK3 app UI fonts when logical DPI>96
Product: kde-gtk-config
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: Linux

Component: general
Assignee: manutort...@chakra-project.org

After https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1269274 was closed WONTFIX,
I asked about this several places:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2016-July/msg00028.html
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/k...@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/ZPIFOVGR6572ZR7L4TXMUXRYHQESBOPW/
http://trinity-devel.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::15168
None generated any response.
According to the mozilla bug,
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/commit/?id=bdf0820c501437a2150d8ff0d5340246e713f73f
caused the regression.
Upstream bug that could have fixed this was WONTFIX'd last October:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=757142
If there happens to be an XFT.dpi setting equal to the actual Xorg display
density, then UI font sizes are OK. What seems to be needed is a way for Xorg
density to be automatically converted into an Xft.dpi value for the exclusive
benefit of these GTK3-built apps.
