The scale of the screen is increased by executing vscode. #426

pengwin Ver. 1.2.3.0

Running vscode will make the screen bigger and occupy the display. The same goes for other X applications as well. X uses X410.

We performed reinstallation etc. It was not big at the first start. It becomes bigger after the second time.

I do not know how to deal with it.

If you don't know if you enabled hidpi scaling, run ls /etc/profile.d/ and check the output for 'hidpi.sh' If your issue does not involve hidpi scaling, then the following doesn't apply.

Assuming you configured hidpi in pengwin-setup, you need to rescale text, as explained here.

To apply and test this in pengwin, run export GDK_DPI_SCALE=0.5 && code If you don't like how it looks, close vscode and rerun the above with a different value for GDK_DPI_SCALE Tweak GDK_DPI_SCALE as need until you like how it looks, personally, 0.6 looks best on my machine.

To finalize your setting sudo bash -c "echo \"export GDK_DPI_SCALE=${GDK_DPI_SCALE}\" >> /etc/profile.d/hidpi.sh"

There was no setting of 'export GDK_DPI_SCALE = 0.5' in 'hidpi.sh'. I added the settings, restarted pengwin and started 'code' and it was displayed correctly.

Thank you very much.
