[Owais Lone <hello@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a HighDPI laptop and would like to help test these changes as I'm
running 14.04. I installed the latest unity but it didn't scale
automatically. I had to change `/org/gnome/desktop/interface/scaling-
factor` to 2 in order to make unity scale.

It still does not scale text in quicklists, panel, tooltips, alt-tab and
dash. Rest of the Gnome apps (Gtk3) scale perfectly well.

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 ...
