Text that shrinks as available space for it increases is idiotic. You're drawing an erroneous conclusion from a sample of two displays. It is not always the case that larger displays have a higher native DPI than smaller displays. In fact, desktop PC displays almost all have DPIs in the narrow range of 95-110 - varying within that range in a fashion that is not predictably related to screen size - precisely because Windows locks its DPI to 96 by default, and with a 'logical' DPI of 96, a display with a 'physical' DPI of about 100-105 is what looks 'right' to most people. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
