Fractional scaling is about being able to scale by a non multiple, like 125%, 150%, etc. It's quite nice if you need something rendered bigger (overall, not just the fonts) but don't want to turn your 4K monitor into a 1080p high resolution surface. Note that this is enabled by default on latest Ubuntu I believe, it has some issue with legacy X11 application (you might see some blur). To enable, and then restart you session. gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor-framebuffer']" https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/09/enable-fractional-scaling-gnome-linux This feature request is different though, it's about allowing to change the font size in the theme per monitor. Note that changing font size often affect layout and may break the theme. It remains that if there is enough traction, such feature could possibly be nice, could even become a per monitor theme and apply to other use cases, like using high-contrast on LED secondary screens (like some phone overlays, or action camera secondary screens).

Re: sorry if this is the wrong place
This feature is called "Fractional Scaling". There are several articles related to his explaining how to set different scaling for two displays in the same system. Don't want to give you concrete example webpages because I've not tested them and I don't want to confuse you, but a quick search in Google might help.

sorry if this is the wrong place
I wish to make a feature request for the gnome desktop, and I cannot find anyway on the gnome.org sites to do this basically I have a problem with desktop font scaling I have a new 27" hi resolution (3840 x 2160 (16:9)) monitor and a older 27" with lesser resolution (1920 x 1200 (16:10)), now the fonts on the hi-res monitor were too small for my eyes, the lower res one was fine, now the display options would let me scale the monitor, but I only need the fonts to be bigger not anything else (so this is a total waste), so I scale the fonts in gnome-tweak, this works fine on on the hi res monitor at 1.40 but it also scales the lower res monitor, which is a total waste, but is better than the other. so my feature request is that the font scaling be split per monitor so I can have font scaling on the hi-res monitor to 1.40 and leave the other one at 1.00 Hope this is not too hard to do, yours sincerely Francis Grizzly Smit. -- .~.
