Description

System :

  • DE: Gnome 50
  • OS : Bluefin (A fedora atomic distro)
  • Laptop screen : 1920x1200
  • External screen 1 : 2560 x 1440
  • External screen 2 : 1920x1080

When I connect my laptops to my 2 external screen everything looks very small and there is no options to change this in the options :

And there is no "font size" options to try to solve this :

When I disconnect my laptop from my dock, everything looks OK :

This is the first app I encounter with this weird behavior

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with GNOME 50 on Bluefin using the laptop and two external screens described in the report, then inspect the available UI scaling and font-size options. Done means the interface is readable at that multi-monitor setup and provides an effective way to adjust its size without disconnecting the dock.
