Sizing apps to fit to screen - county93 - 10-02-2021

Is there a recommended way of sizing apps to fit the screen? I saw this:

x=${xdotool search – onlyvisible – name Name-of-App) && xdotool windowsize $x 725 270 && xdotool window move $x 0 50

Has anyone used it? I've have to reinstall Mobian a few times with my experimentation with other things and just wanted to be sure.

Thanks.

The easiest way is to just use scale-to-fit ("scale-to-fit $app true").

Thanks, I'll try that.

I recently upgraded to "Bookworm" and there were improvements to the "Display" selections in "Settings". Previously there was a 100% and a 200% setting. Now, there is 100%, 125%, 150%, 175% and 200%. 150% solved my problem for now. Thanks again and thanks to the programmer that improved the "Settings".

"Sometimes" just rocking between landscape and portrait the app will correct itself into correctly fitting the screen.
