[Bug 1884754] Re: Fractional scaling does not persist across reboots in resizable VM windows
Behaviour seems somewhat improved but the root issue is still there. When rebooting with VMware Player running the scaling is now remembered correctly, however if I then shut the VM down completely and restart it, it still starts up at first in default screen size, removing the scaling. Also the scaling modifications seem more aggressive now - if I have the windowed VMware Player maximized on my 4k screen (practical resolution 3840x2015, note not 2160 pixels high due to host window chrome) it allows me to set 125% scaling, but if I then resize the host window or just unmaximize the 125% options disappear from setting *and Ubuntu snaps right back to 200%*. So effectively what I described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1884754/comments/9 is still happening as before. I still think https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1884754/comments/11 is the only true fix - in _virtual_ monitors the system should never intervene with scaling settings at all and just trust whatever the user selects for himself, as he may be resizing, maximizing, changing displays etc. all the time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1884754 Title: Fractional scaling does not persist while resizing or rebooting in VM windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1884754/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Before we ask you to report the issue upstream we need to check to see if it's a downstream-only bug. Please: 1. Make sure Wayland fractional support is enabled: gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor- framebuffer', 'x11-randr-fractional-scaling']" (GUI support is coming - bug 1871864) 2. Log out. 3. Select 'Ubuntu on Wayland' from the login screen. 4. Does this bug still happen in a Wayland session? ** Changed in: mutter (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1884754 Title: Fractional scaling does not persist across reboots in resizable VM windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1884754/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Considering that Mutter indeed knows that a monitor is virtual - shouldn't it just ignore resolution completely for resolving existing configuration?
