My display is 2560x1440. I have the HIDPI setting at 1.75 to increase text and icon sizes (giving an effective screen resolution of ~1463x883).
If the HIDPI setting is 1, text and icons are small in all applications. When I increase the HIDPI setting (eg. to 1.75), font sizes and icons increase in size, but nautilus does not change. I expect nautilus to have an increased font size and icon size. I can attach screenshots to clarify this, as I don't think my explanation is clear. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1515767 Title: Nautilus does not follow HIDPI setting Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Since upgrading from 15.04 to 15.10, nautilus does not follow the HIDPI settings from System Settings -> Screen Display after boot/login.
