Here are the versions I'm using, according to "System Info": Operating System: Kubuntu 20.04 KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0 Qt Version: 5.12.8 Kernel Version: 5.4.0-58-generic OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 12 × Intel® Core™ i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz Memory: 62.8 GiB of RAM Nate, I've changed from being a Linux Enthusiast (who likes to see each update as it comes out). I prefer to run Long Term Support releases like Kubuntu 20.04, these days. I don't play much on the computer anymore; I work. That said. My favorite Desktop Environment ever was Unity 7. On that DE, if I set scaling to 2.25 on my 4K monitors. All apps looked perfect to my aging eyes. Since Unity 7, ever DE I've used has a half-ass ability to truly do global scaling. Take KDE for example (since that's what I'm using these days). Yeah, it can scale QT apps pretty well, but does a poor Job with GTK apps. That's not a true "global scaling". That's framework-specific scaling. That 192 DPI hack was the only reason I was able to stick with KDE. It was the only glue that made all my apps visible to me on 4K monitors (QT or GTK). If KDE really wanted to be innovative, they create a window manager where each window can be scaled by holding down ctrl while resizing the corner of a window. This would re-scale that window while maintaining aspect ratio. If you hold down control while clicking the right, left, top, or bottom side of a window, aspect ratio would NOT be maintained. I desire this too sometimes. Believe it or not, there was DE that accomplished this back in 2007, called Metisse. I experience this by installing this ISO back in 2007: http://iso.linuxquestions.org/mandriva/mandriva-one-2007-metisse/#live-cd YouTube has a couple of videos showing what you could do with this: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Metisse+desktop It was so cool! You'd think these would be standard features by now, but no. Innovation has been ignored in favor of the lowest common denominator. The future was shown to me in 2007. 13+ years later and no one is implementing window-level scaling: not Linux, not MAC, not Windows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1862467 Title: Utilize More Horizontal During Font Adjustment To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kdelibs/+bug/1862467/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
