In MX Tweak there is a setting for Display GTK Scaling. There 3 are options, 1x, 2x, or 3x. 1x is default and makes everything too small on the screen and 2x makes everything too big. Is there a way to edit these settings in a file so I could set it at 1.5x or whatever?
Thanks

no. xfce only supports whole number gtk scaling.
you have two options. the xrandr scaling (either in mx-tweak or in Display, they work the same setting), or ramp up the dpi setting in Appearance, then adjust zoom in apps that can to make the interface for comfortable.
I also find mysefl using KDE/plasma more often. it has a display zoom setting that supports fractional scaling.

Thank you. Is reinstalling the only practical way to switch to plasma?

no. xfce only supports whole number gtk scaling.
you have two options. the xrandr scaling (either in mx-tweak or in Display, they work the same setting), or ramp up the dpi setting in Appearance, then adjust zoom in apps that can to make the interface for comfortable.
I also find mysefl using KDE/plasma more often. it has a display zoom setting that supports fractional scaling.
No you can install plasma in mx packageinstaller. Popular apps

I used xrandr scaling at 1.5 and it works well. All the apps including Conky scales properly after you turn it off/on.

I'm curious, because I don't really know the correct way to adjust this, I just use what seems to work best; but would you mind telling me what resolution your display/monitor is and if what you do works better than what I do.
Because – I have:
Code: Select all
Screen-1: 0 s-res: 1920x1080 s-dpi: 97 s-size: 504x283mm (19.8x11.1")
s-diag: 578mm (22.8")
Monitor-1: eDP res: 1920x1080 hz: 60 dpi: 142 size: 344x193mm (13.5x7.6")
diag: 394mm (15.5")
And if I disable (uncheck) Appearance>Fonts>DPI -- Custom DPI setting and set MX-Tweak>Display -- xrandr Scaling at 1.5 (or 1.4) the scaling seems to work OK, but the font is blurry, whereas if I set Appearance>Fonts>DPI -- Custom DPI setting to 141 (or 150) and set (or leave) MX-Tweak>Display -- xrandr Scaling at 1 the font is not blurry, or not noticeably blurry.
If there's a better (or correct) way to do this, I want to know - but I'm satisfied with my current settings.
Thanks

Mine is this below;
Code: Select all
Screen-1: 0 s-res: 4480x1440 s-dpi: 96 s-size: 1185x381mm (46.7x15.0")
s-diag: 1245mm (49")
Monitor-2: DP-0 res: 2560x1440 hz: 60 dpi: 105 size: 621x341mm (24.4x13.4")
diag: 708mm (27.9")
The font is blurry initially after setting but settles down. Even after reboot seems fine. The font is also sharp. But I agree, its blurry when setting it initially using xrandr scaling.

OK, I'm going to try that and see what it look like, I never rebooted - I'll take before and after screenshots too.
Have to do later, gotta go – thanks.
