Description Luca Allulli 2018-09-30 13:11:42 UTC 
It would be nice to be able to programmatically modify the display scaling factor, e.g. via a D-Bus message or running a script.

Possible applications include:
- creating several SDDM configurations, in order to start a Plasma session with a scaling factor that depends on the connected monitor
- modifying scaling factor "on the fly", by running a script, when you switch to a different monitor, etc.

Thank you!
