I had it in mind to take another look at this PR when I got back from holiday. It seems to have warmed up a bit! :smile: For the record, I'm -1 to this approach. There is a valid issue here. The "fix" is wrong, incomplete and in the wrong place. In my opinion we should probably be looking to move all of the existing scaling and font settings out of the launcher itself anyway, not adding to them. Also, comments like - > I'm not willing to try implementing and/or testing a different approach. are not helpful. Drive-by, take-it-or-leave-it, PRs are often not useful, even damaging, to open-source projects. We have a handful of volunteer maintainers looking after the UI aspects of the IDE and platform for hundreds of thousands of users. This affects a narrow subset of those users. A contribution that fixed this issue in a better way with less risk would be welcomed. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
