  • Wayland session: Fractional scaling in Firefox

    From Martin Steigerwald@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jul 3 18:10:01 2024
    Hi!

    After switching from X11 to Wayland Firefox does not apply the fractional scaling of 1,5x that I set.

    How can I persuade it to do so?

    Haha, got it:

    1. Navigtate to "about:config"

    2. Set "widget.wayland.fractional-scale.enabled" to "true"

    Working since Firefox 118 as far as I researched.

    Best,

    Or probably only partially working.

    Context menu and foldable elements like from uBlock Origin either do not
    show up, show up in the wrong size without allowing to scroll in there.

    That is a show stopper for me. So again back to X11 again.

    I did not check whether only Firefox or also other applications are
    affected.

    Best,
