@wildwestrom User @the_nightman referred the issue they reported in the previous message, not about HiDPI support. I personally enjoy HiDPI support, but with more and more apps supporting Wayland natively, this package will become less relevant.

@the_nightman commented on 2021-12-18 06:15 According to this github issue, it was fixed with this PR.

So is this package relevant anymore? Or should we just use the sway or sway-git package? @Rucikir please comment.

Won't build, getting wlroots dep version mismatch with latest wlroots-hidpi-git

@ThirstyShark: Configuration instructions are at swayvm/wlroots: xwayland: hidpi support #2064 .

Does anything need to be configured for this to work? I replaced my sway with this and the hidpi dependencies, but all xwayland apps are just as blurry as before. Or does this package do something else.

I have output eDP-1 scale 1.5 in my sway config, and that's it.

Edit: figured it out. In sway config add xwayland scale 2, then in .Xdefaults put Xft.dpi: 160 or whatever looks nice.

Does this package work on Manjaro? Pamac gets stuck on “Checking file conflicts…” for some reason. I tried deleting the cache, which didn’t help. Yay reports the following:

Configuration instructions are at swayvm/wlroots: xwayland: hidpi support #2064 .

If you get a invalid checksum on xwayland_hidpi.diff, remember to clean the cache of your AUR helper first.

Still the perfect wayland solution for multiple monitors whose DPIs are different.

Man, thank you so much for this one!
