14:41 <f_> I'm writing the 0.2 blogpost

14:42 <f_> also I'll make a few adjustments to the website as you asked Son_Goku

14:52 <ConanKudo[m]1> f_: thanks

14:52 <f_> you're welcome. Thanks for handling my version MR while I was sick :)

19:07 <bigmac> Hey. I am currently looking into #11. Could I ask if setting xorg to lower dpi, or higher dpi should be prefered when the amount of outputs with a Y scale factor is the same as say Y+1 where Y is the highest scale factor there is on the system? An example of this is having two monitors, one low res and one high res

19:07 <Wayback> #11 properly notify Xwayland about screen DPI (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayback/wayback/-/issues/11) [opened]

19:08 <bigmac> Y+1 would be the biggest scale factor on the system* but I hope the example makes it clear

19:23 <f_> In other news, site!3

19:23 <Wayback> site!3 content/news: 0.2 announcement (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayback/wayback.freedesktop.org/-/merge_requests/3) [opened]

19:23 <f_> ConanKudo[m]1: ^ also adds /news to the navbar and makes it show only one entry on the homepage

19:39 <f_> bigmac: I'd either do Y for both, or Y+0.5 somehow

19:41 <bigmac> f_: Hm, so to prioritize the lower option. Are you aware of what xorg prioritizes if such situation occurs?

19:48 <f_> am not

19:48 <f_> I am not*

19:54 <bigmac> Finding a compromise would be fine, until the differences are way too high I would think

20:07 <f_> Xorg doesn't properly do per-screen DPI in any case.

20:37 <bigmac> The global default is 96, but we could skim through the outputs and find a better suiting number. I am thinking about the edge cases and yeah,.. it probably will not play out nicely if one has a 4K monitor and a little tablet-like screen plugged in at the same time. If we were to compromise in a way of finding the mid point between all the factors, we would be probably left with two unusable

20:37 <bigmac> screens

21:12 <f_|cat> <bigmac> The global default is 96, but we could skim through the outputs and find a better suiting number. I am thinking about the edge cases and yeah,.. it probably will not play out nicely if one has a 4K monitor and a little tablet-like screen plugged in at the same time. If we were to compromise in a way...

21:12 <f_|cat> Maybe a switch to disable that thing would be nice.

21:13 <bigmac> To go back to the hard coded default? Yeah, agreed

21:14 <f_> yep

21:14 <f_> Or have a switch to explicitely enable it?

21:18 <bigmac> anyhow x apps don't really seem to respect the "custom" DPI. Some programs, such as the i3bar and i3 wm interface in general, are fine, but the terminals I am trying are just ignoring it altogether. On icewm, for example, the time indicator and on hover titles scale, but the rest of the ui does not.. Is -dpi not *the* flag to set dpi with?

21:29 <f_> it's called dpi so I'd say yes

21:33 <bigmac> f_: Just out of curiosity, could you try this: https://paste.centos.org/view/8f61f83a and see how reliably it scales everything up with which ever xwm you're using? You might want to make it more like 150, but since I am uisng a macbook with a retina screen I need it to be at around that number.

21:35 <f_|cat> yeah sure, give me a sec
