I agree. Maybe I should totally remove this and set the factors by unity which is the right program to decide what the scaling values will be. > * do we really need the "by monitor" logic? that seems over complicated.

Probably yes, that's why we discussed that with the designers team, the problem is that we promised to add a checkbox in like 2 days that remain before the release :) so, we decided to add it, and improve the design later... > * how does that play with the accessibility setting for "big text" that sets > the text scaling to 1.25? it seems like those settings > are going to conflict That's also true. The only thing we can do for the moment is to show the button unchecked when there's a mismatch until we have a better widget/design solution...

What will be different in the new checkbox except of the label? it will always set the scaling-factor to 2? (scales allways up? or it's an example?) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1294578 Title: [ffe/uife] "Match the display settings" checkbox To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-control-center/+bug/1294578/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
