Hi,
can you add a textbox in the Control Panel > Display to make possible to specify the custom scaling value?
The fixed and default value 100% is too small with my DPI settings and the fixed value 125% is too large for my DPI settings.
In Microsoft Windows 10 I can put a custom value in a textbox for the scaling factor and it is currently 110%.
Thanks for adding this functionality.
Best Regards,
Blogghete.

Solution:
Install dconf-editor
  • sudo apt-get install dconf-editor


then you should have a gui for dconf-editor in your programs, open the program then goto
  • /com/deepin/wrap/gnome/desktop/interface/



Change the value of scaling or scaling-text to 1.10.

Hi, I cannot see a text field, so I cannot put the 1.10 (110%) value.
The available values are 1.00 and 1.25.
Thanks.

Have a look in the dconf editor under:

  1. /com/deepin/wrap/gnome/desktop/interface/
Copy the Code


should be 'text-scaling-factor' or 'scaling-factor'

*be careful in the dconf editor*

Thanks for the answer.
I cannot execute the following commands:
"insesistente" in Italian stands for "does not exist".

  1. username@username-PC:/$ sudo gsettings get /com/deepin/wrap/gnome/desktop/interface/ text-scaling-factor
  2. Schema «/com/deepin/wrap/gnome/desktop/interface/» inesistente
  3. username@username-PC:/$ sudo gsettings get /com/deepin/wrap/gnome/desktop/interface/ scaling-factor
  4. Schema «/com/deepin/wrap/gnome/desktop/interface/» inesistente
  5. username@username-PC:/$
Copy the Code


Do you know what are the commands that I must to execute?
