[Bug 1075417] Re: Unity panel height and launcher width don't scale with system DPI/font settings

 

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 7.1.2+14.04.20140220-0ubuntu1

---------------
unity (7.1.2+14.04.20140220-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=low

  [ CI bot ]
  * Add dynamic HiDPI support to the launcher. (LP: #1075417)
  * Add dynamic HiDPI support to the tooltips.
  * Add dynamic HiDPI support to the quicklist.
  * The decor now scales with the DPI value.

  [ Brandon Schaefer ]
  * Remove the nux::Property panel_height; Replace it with a function.
    Now PanelStyle holds up to monitors::MAX panel_height. Now to get
    the panel height for the monitor you just use PanelHeight(int
    monitor). Added a signal panel_height_changed() that will emit the
    new panel height, and the monitor that was changed. Its not
    currently used. (LP: #1075417)
  * UnitySettings: use proper gnome scaling-factor

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * UnitySettings: use proper gnome scaling-factor
  * DecoratedWindow: add menu
  * DecoratedWindow: make sure that the top_layout exist when setting up
    the decorations If there's no layout, then we don't need any
    texture. Also this might cause a crash if a window is about to be
    mapped but not yet fully framed. (LP: #1281610)

  [ Sebastien Bacher ]
  * Drop g-s-d override, unity-settings-daemon landed

Title:
  Unity panel height and launcher width don't scale with system DPI/font
  settings

Status in Ubuntu on the Nexus 7:
  Confirmed
Status in Unity:
  In Progress
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  System Settings > Universal Access > Text size = Larger
  or
  gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 1.0
  increasing the value above 1.0 as desired.

  Most things scale properly except Unity. Most of Unity's fonts scale
  correctly, but elements like the launcher, tooltips, and panel don't
  grow like they should.

  I'm not sure if bumping the Gnome font size like this is the right approach or we should be doing something more like:
      xrandr --dpi ...
