Hi Gottfried,

The screenshot was useful. Fractional scaling means setting the scaling
(Skalierung) to a value that is not a whole number. Here you have 1
(100%), but if you set it to for example 150% (1.5) it can cause
blurryness.

However that is not the case here. So I am not sure what’s wrong.

Maybe it could be something as simple as not having the same screen
resolution?

Good day,
Noé
