DPI cheatcode

Post#1 by **rych** » 06 May 2022, 08:49

There doesn't seem to be a method to change DPI without restarting so I wish I could decide my DPI settings from the boot menu. There isn't a "dpi" cheatcode, is there. What's the best advice then: do I switch DPI-setting modules with load=module cheatcode?

I'm going to need several versions of modules containing .Xresources with e.g.

Code: Select all

Xft.dpi: 120

and .bash_profile with

Code: Select all

export QT_FONT_DPI=140

Particularly I'll be trying a machine with a 4K monitor sometimes -- hopefully OpenBoX will scale up nicely. But first I'd better figure out how to choose the DPI option at boot. Right?
