When I click and drag the slider around, it updates the screen's scale factor (most of the time). However, when I click the slider, then change the value with the left and right arrow keys, the scale-factor parameter is unchanged. Clicking "Apply" doesn't help. I expected the slider to behave the same whether it was moved by mouse drags or keyboard movements. Steps to replicate: 1. Open a terminal and run `dconf watch /com/ubuntu/user-interface/scale-factor` 2. Open the Displays GUI 3. Click the "Scale for menu and title bars" slider and move it around with the arrow keys. Note that the scale-factor in the terminal did not update. 4. Click "Apply". Note that the window is not rescaled. I've also had trouble with mouse drags not updating scale-factor, but I'm having trouble replicating that issue. As a side comment, it seems that the name "Scale for menu and title bars" is a little misleading. It controls the whole screen scaling, not just menu and title bars, yes?
