Is there any adequate option to scale Linux Mint to a WQHD screen (2.560 x 1.440) with high density?



If I am going to




System Settings -> General




indeed I have an option for scaling my desktop to fit my screen:



Linux Mint Desktop Scaling Dropdown



Possible options:



  • Auto

  • Normal

  • Double (High-DPI)

Should do it for Full HD and 4K Screens, but on WQHD it sucks. Either everything is way to large or everything is way to small.



Sure, I can adjust the font and the panel sizes (which is what I did for now), but this still does not solve dozens of problems where everything is either way to big or way to small.



How could I achieve appropriate scaling?
