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 am so glad I switched to Plasma. It really makes MX even cooler. Thanks for all of the help.

Sorry for taking so long to reply and I did not take screenshots, but mine didn't look as good as when I adjust the DPI under Appearance.

No problem. Seeing the above makes me want to try plasma. I'll check it out. I'm curious now.

Same here, only I'll check to see if the - Default Applications works OK in MX-KDE.
