This issue is also reproduced in my 14.04 box. In the unity-control-center I set scale factor to 1.5, before the issue happen I checked some gsettings items:
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 1.5 gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Interface text-scale-factor 1.0 then after several times reboot the issue is reproduced (I guess logout and login will also trigger it), the effect is just like Martin's screenshot. Now the two gsettings items are changed to: gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 2.25 gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Interface text-scale-factor 1.5 I can manually restore it by below command, however the issue still will be reproduced sooner or later. gsettings reset com.canonical.Unity.Interface text-scale-factor -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1316734 Title: Scaling factors for high DPI screens are sometimes applied twice To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1316734/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
