2020-03-29 20:16:12 Robert Ancell description [Impact] Fractional scaling is currently requires enabling an experimental feature in Mutter to use it. We would like this feature to be easily enabled by users. [Test Case] 1. Open Settings 2. Select Displays panels Expected result: Scale can be set to fractional values (e.g. 125%). There is a UI control to enable fractional scaling (disabled by default). Observed result: Scale can only be set to multiples of 100% unless the feature was enabled. No UI control is shown for Fractional scaling. [Regressional Potential] New UI code risks introducing new bugs. Users enabling fractional scaling may trigger new bugs. [Impact] Fractional scaling is currently requires enabling an experimental feature in Mutter to use it. We would like this feature to be easily enabled by users. A lot of modern hardware supports high DPI displays and these are often not usable without some form of fractional scaling. [Test Case] 1. Open Settings 2. Select Displays panels Expected result: Scale can be set to fractional values (e.g. 125%). There is a UI control to enable fractional scaling (disabled by default).
