Testing with: * gnome-control-center 1:47.3-1ubuntu1 * mesa 24.2.8-1ubuntu1~24.10.1
Inside the nested gnome-shell, I changed the resolution to 1600x920 and enabled the Fractional Scaling toggle. The buttons for scaling 100%, 125%, 150%, 175% showed up: selecting each one of them and clicking "Apply" resized the nested gnome-shell window accordingly. Then turning off the Fractional Scaling toggle and selecting "Apply" also worked to restore the original dimensions. I have not encountered the regression mentioned in the "Regression potential" section; in facts at lower resolutions the buttons for scaling 100%, 125%, 150% etc... did not show up as options. ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-oracular ** Tags added: verification-done verification-done-oracular -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2085722 Title: Enabling fractional scaling in a nested gnome-shell session does not work Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gnome-control-center source package in Oracular: Fix Committed Bug description: # Impact When running gnome-shell in a nested compositor, it's not possible to test fractional scaling toggling by using g-c-c # Test case Run: env XDG_RUNTIME_PATH=/tmp/g-s-runtime HOME=/tmp/g-s-home dbus-run-session \ gnome-shell --nested --wayland --unsafe-mode 1. In the nested session run settings and go to display settings. 2. Enabling fractional scaling should work: fractional values should be show once picking a valid resolution such as 1600x1920 3. Toggling it back should work too. # Regression potential Fractional scaling can be enabled when not supported To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/2085722/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
