Yes I know a hidpi display is one with ... a high dpi value ;) What GNOME does is basically this: If the DPI (computed from screen size *and* resolution) is bigger then 192 it will turn on hidpi support which means setting a scale factor of two. So if you have 2560x1440 display with a size of 22 inch .. it won't do anything. If you have a 2560x1440 display with a size of 12 inch ... it will turn on hidpi scaling. -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
