DPI scaling on different monitors [Bug] #25

Open ghost opened 2 years ago

ghost commented 2 years ago

The DPI scaling of some elements is inconsistent at different resolutions. I noticed the dock, the control panel and the calendar are not scaled correctly in 4K and their alignment is off. What resolution/DPI did you use to make the theme? I really love it! If you attempt any fix, I would be glad to test it.

hello @Mathis752 , everything is configured in a 1600x900 resolution with 96 dpi. I've tested it on 1920x1080 screen and it works fine.

can you please provide some screenshots, it would be helpful, thanks :+1:

At 3840x2160 at 144 DPI, the control panel and dock have some weird alignments. It used to be the case for the calendar, but it seems like you removed it. 2022-06-03-160614_3840x2160_scrot 2022-06-03-160629_3840x2160_scrot

In fact, the same thing happens in 1080p at 144 DPI, so it's probably not the resolution, but the DPI set with Xft.DPI
