Bug description

Hello. I need to change User Interface Scale in terminal.

How I can now change Scaling Factor with Terminal now? Is now this function in Cinnamon?

Steps to reproduce

In Cinnamon 5.2.7(?), Opensuse in Terminal I used command:

gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.interface scaling-factor 2 gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.interface scaling-factor 1

Expected behavior

In Cinnamon 5.2.7(?), Opensuse it worked, but now in LMDE 5 Elsie, Cinnamon 5.6.8 these commands don't work, and Terminal does not write anything after entering them.

Additional information

No response

I found a temporary solution.

Command: gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.interface scaling-factor Does not work if it alone. But it work if ater it I turn off-turn on screen

Now to work the command should look like this: gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.interface scaling-factor 2 xrandr --output eDP --off xrandr --output eDP --auto
