Hi
I'm running a 3840x2400 laptop display in 200% scaled mode, on gnome-shell-3.36.
x2goclient-4.1.2.2 UI can be fixed up with QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=1.
But remote apps still launch in native resolution, making everything tiny small. This happens for both Wayland and Xorg-based Gnome session.
Is there a solution to getting the remote x2go session match the current scale of local display? Mailing list searches for "hidpi" etc failed to find anything useful.

There is no Wayland support in X2Go, so whatever you're seeing in Wayland is actually an X server running in the background.

What happens when you set a different DPI value in the X2GoClient's session configuration? The default value is 96. If I set it to 200, I get huge text on all menu buttons etc. - so maybe this is what you're looking for?
Kind Regards, Stefan Baur

Ooh, for whatever reason, setting "Custom DPI: 192" now works.
I could swear it didn't have any effect last I tried it, but my remote IntelliJ IDE now seems to scale correctly. Tyvm!
If you are using shadowing (accessing a running X server) the screen will be scaled down to your local native resolution. At quick glance I don't see in the code that this could work for normal session. And I also am unsure if it might scale up for shadowed sessions.
