Bug ID: 483483
Summary: Cannot disable resolution scaling for single app
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
Reporter: david.cortes.riv...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When one configures scaling in the resolution settings, it applies to all apps.
Some apps do not look good with scaling applied, or have their own better ways
of handling scaling, but it's not possible to disable scaling for them while
enabling it for other apps.
Would be ideal if there could be an option to disable resolution scaling for a
specific app, perhaps as one of those "window rules" or "application rules"
that one can set for e.g. titlebars and composing.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to system settings -> Display and monitor -> Global Scale -> set to
something other than 100%.
2. Try to disable for a specific app, without assuming that said app uses QT or
GTK (thus might not respond to env. variables like `QT_SCALE_FACTOR`).
3. Optionally, right click the app's title bar, select More Actions ->
Configure Special Application Settings -> Add property, and try to search for
something related to scaling.
OBSERVED RESULT
Not possible.
EXPECTED RESULT
Should be possible to disable resolution scaling for a given app, while still
enabling it for the rest.
