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.

for some resolutions apparently setting --filter=nearest might help? 

see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94816
i hope it was merged in xrandr 1.5.1
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/app/xrandr/commit/?id=6ac2afc0d7d8d51d4085767b901667393c11061b

 

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
