no high-DPI scaling for some applications?
Hi there!
I've setup a kali-linux xfce desktop (via Windows10 wsl2 + win-kex package) and to get it looking crisp I set it up so that Windows doesn't apply any scaling to it, but rather make XFCE do that itself. (see also: https://www.reddit.com/r/Kalilinux/comments/14iicps/winkex_windows10_highdpi_setup/ )
I'm mostly happy with how that turned out, but now those two applications look much too tiny:
- LibreOffice
- unison-gtk
How can I get XFCE to apply high-DPI scaling to those too?
