I was a bit worried you might need to include a delay and/or change the setting more than once, but I didn't know how adept you were so I tried keeping it simple at first. I'm pleased you managed to figure out a solution when it didn't work first time.

I've been able to tinker it, with your help. I've adjusted the
scaling.desktop file to start a script instead of calling gsettings.
This is necessary because several commands are needed:
#! /bin/bash
sleep 1
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 1.61
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 1.6
All of them are necessary. Or so it seems.
Now it - somehow - works. :-)
Thanks for your help!
