Ugh ... I though it would be easier to direct you to tweak tool but apparently accessing the setting directly would have been a better idea. Sorry for that. All that tweak tool does is to set a value in gsettings which you can do using:: "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor <value>" for instance "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor 1" and go back using "gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor 0" or "gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor" > Anyway, here's an Emacs window being resized; it thinks it's 39x18, > but, as can be seen, it's actually a little more than double that in > both directions. Oh ok. Well seems like emacs somehow gets this wrong while gnome-terminal doesn't. The scaling is supposed to be transparent to applications though so looks like a gtk bug. Can you file one (upstream if possible) ? > Setting GDK_SCALE=1 makes Emacs behave rationally, thanks! OK good to hear. What this does is disabling the scaling for emacs but leave the rest of the desktop / other applications alone. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
