--- Comment #3 from Jos van den Oever <j...@vandenoever.info> --- The linked Wayland protocol issue (47) has suggestions for adding per window scaling via additions such as `wanted_scale`, `set_client_scale`, `setting_client_scale`. Since the current method of scaling is blurry and resource intensive I hope that these additions will be picked up soon. E.g. if you have a 4k display with 1.25 scaling, the current scaling method on Wayland would give a 6144x3456 (4k / 1.25 * 2) buffer to a fullscreen application such as the always-present desktop background. That is a buffer that is 2.56x as large as a 4k buffer. Not fun. So Wayland has a big incentive to fix 47. The proposed additions could be used to implement this scale-by-dragging feature. Or vice-versa, this feature request could be one more reason to have those Wayland additions. Scaling windows up and down by dragging makes for wonderfully visual demo material besides simply being very handy. Perhaps it's easier to first implement it on X11. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
