Bug ID: 460394
Summary: Setting the "let the application handle its scaling"
setting per application.
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: git-stable-Plasma/5.26
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: alphaproject...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The reason I switched to KDE wayland, despite it's shortcomings, is because of
the staggering amount of applications that have no support for a DPI other then
96, as well as X11's shortcomings with multi-monitor setups (I like being able
to set my second monitor to it's proper resolution while retaining the DPI it
should have)
On that note, I'm also quite annoyed with applications being blurry. Ideally,
it's arguable whether smooth scaling even needs to be used because some of
these applications would actually look better using nearest neighbor scaling,
but I digress: I think that the newest feature that lets you let applications
handle scaling themselves is a welcome addition. But as I said earlier, some
applications do not do this correctly. So while I hate the default scaling,
it's actually a necessity for many programs...and yet, not others.
Alls this to say, I think that the "let programs handle their own scaling"
option should be offered on a per application basis.
