I think it's easier to leave that in an external dialog for the X case, then you don't have to worry about it in this patch. Here's what I wrote in https://notes.kde.org/p/usability-productivity-sprint-2019: > - Discuss with Plasma folks on unifying our scaling methods; maybe remove or hide the Force Fonts DPI setting to avoid confusing people: https://phabricator.kde.org/T9500. Conclusion: > - Move the Force Fonts DPI control into the scaling window and make them more visually connected to one another; see task for more details F6920969: 20190621_151413.jpg <https://phabricator.kde.org/F6920969> > - Also discuss how we can eventually make Plasma use the global scale factor on X11: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356446.
