Hello,
I bought a 27" UHD monitor, before that I had a 27" 1080 monitor. Everything is too small on the monitor. I can change the fonts, icons and other individual things, but not the whole desktop.
I tried this in Plasma, I can easily scale the whole desktop (with Firefox and other none plasma stuff). This is wonderful, so now I have to use Plasma. :/
Can't I find the setting in Trinity or does the option not exist?
Support for variable DPI settings in user session (range 64-512) has been added to TDE and will be part of the upcoming R14.0.11 release. This should help using TDE with high resolution screens. Go to TCC -> Appearance & Themes -> Fonts page and there is now a spinbox control to set the font DPI in the mentioned range. See screenshot here showing KCalc at 3 different DPI settings. https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/attachments/6413bbc0-dee7-453e-a...
Updated packages in PSB/PTB will available soon. For the other distros, you will need to wait for the R14.0.11 release I guess.
Cheers Michele
Hello,
wow thank you very much! It works very well. I still adjusted the icons. I also tried the last week scaling with xrandr. This is not good, much too blurry.
I have tried Q4OS in a VM for the last few days. There is a scaling program for TDE. There are the icons, font and so with one setting changed. But I don't want to use Q4os, because TDE has been changed a bit. I do not like it. The scaling tool has the advantage that I can simply change it all when I pull the monitor from the laptop and again have a smaller resolution. It is very comfortable.
Best regards
