[Bug 1196239] Re: Add support for fake modes on laptop screens which only have one

 

Sounds roughly like what I said in the previous comments.

I agree Mir should not be providing fake modes just to address scaling.
Scaling should be done in the shell but using the real native mode of
the display for maximum visual quality.

However... some shells might not scale adequately and/or some users will
have strange preferences and supporting fake modes is just a nice-to-
have feature for those cases. Unity8 does not fall into this category so
this bug should not be considered high priority IMHO.

Just add a slider in Unity8's settings to adjust the scale, and
implement it correctly :)
