If someone has a similar problem, I suggest to read this page:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HiDPI
It helps me a lot, but I'm still having problem with the monitors.
Zooming/panning make the display blurry and (as suggested in the web
page) I should try to adjust the "sharpness" parameter, but I do not
find it in Fedora.
I am still wondering why fedora does not provide a complete "display
setting" in order to manage the new monitors.
Best,
Massimo

Hi all,
I've bought a new laptop (Dell xps 13.3) and the monitor resolution is
3200x1800. Now the problem is that I cannot use this laptop with my
external monitor which I use as an extended monitor. The external
monitor could reach 1280x1024. So when I try to move a window from the
laptop monitor to the external monitor, it appears too big.
I haven't this problem with my previous dell xps and what it is more
important, if I run an Ubuntu live distro, I can see various setting
to manage displays such as "windows scaling" where I can adjust the
windows sizes.
So,
- why fedora does not provide the same setting as Ubuntu? Ubuntu
proposes many different resolutions and specific window scaling for
the two monitors.
- is there something that I can do in fedora?
I really do no want switch to Ubuntu after more than 20 years with
fedora.
After my signature the xrandr output.
Thanks,
Massimo
