Problem
The app is using normal 96dpi scaling on my 200dpi screen, so the contents are very small.

Here's a picture comparing Zapzap to the window manager, which uses the correct dpi.

Request

  1. The app should try to use global dpi settings where possible.
  2. There should be an option to manually adjust the dpi within the app.

Is there a temporary workaround by adding or editing a config file? I would be happy to just do that.

System
Machine: Apple Macbook Pro (13-inch, mid 2012)
OS: Linux Mint 22 Wilma 6.8.0-50-generic (x86_64) Xfce 4.18.1
Software: Zapzap for Linux version 5.3 (Flatpak)

I have a 2k screen and I also suffer from this. Since I didn't have time to implement something, try setting an environment variable in flatseal:

QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.75

I changed the value to the one that best suits your screen.

I was forgetting...try:
QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1

That works. Thank you! Might be worth putting this in the documentation for future reference
