Blurry font with scaled displays

Open zsolt-donca opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I just found sov. I love the idea :heart: , but when I gave it a try, found out that the text it shows is actually quite blurry:

Above is a screenshot with crisp text from foot but blurry text from sov. The above screen is scaled with a scaling factor of 2. I also have another screen with a scaling factor of 1.5, in case that's relevant.

Hi, I never tried sov with scaling yet, that is the cause for sure, I will look into it, thanks!

Hi, I've prepared the fix in https://github.com/milgra/sov/releases/tag/0.74 but the xdg-shell protocol doesn't support scaling on my machine yet for some strange reason, I will look into it

Hi, it should work in the latest version.

Still appears blurry for me, running on sway with 2x scaling

Hmm, I will investigate.

Sorry, nixOS packaged an older version of sov, newer version works

Cool, no problem.
