Bug ID: 494987
Summary: kde-gtk-config: want force font DPI for
Wayland-non-scaling apps
Classification: Applications

SUMMARY
I have a 4K 27" screen and I wish to force a larger font DPI value via
kde-gtk-config on Wayland for GTK/Java applications which don't respect native
Wayland scaling.
Why? Switching from the default Xft/DPI=144*1024 to Xft/DPI=163*1024 (manually
via xsettingsd) makes the text size and clarity perfect for me. It's a personal
preference.
GDK_SCALE is acceptable for e.g. JDownloader2 which has miniscule UI elements
out-of-the-box, but certainly not for Mullvad Browser which is certainly
usable, although not as crisp as it could be.
Please note: Xft/DPI here is only used as an example. The implementation
details don't matter to me.
RELEVANT
- `int ConfigValueProvider::fontDpi()` in `kded/configvalueprovider.cpp`
- `void GtkConfig::setTextScale()` in `kded/gtkconfig.cpp`
