Disable scaling for certain XWayland applications
by skerit from LinuxQuestions.org on (#56JGC)
I'm running Gnome-shell with wayland, and it's working pretty well.
I'm using fractional scaling, so XWayland based applications are blurry, but most stuff I need actually supports wayland so it's not a big deal.
However: I would like to simply disable *all* scaling for certain applications, mainly games. They don't need any scaling, since they all have dpi/resolution settings in-game anyway. So now I'm playing on blown up 1080p resolutions on my 4K screen. Not good.
However: I can't find *any* help regarding this issue. Somehow, somewhere, it should be possible to disable this please.
