            Bug ID: 485529
           Summary: Support a shortcut for toggling the legacy
                    applications scaling mode
    Classification: Applications
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: 6.0.3
          Platform: Arch Linux
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: kcm_kscreen
          Assignee: kscreen-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: typing...@gmail.com
                CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

I need both "Apply scaling themselves" and "Scaled by the system", depending on
the X11 app I am using. Some more recent X11 apps, such as Android Studio or VS
Code, support scaling themselves, but a lot of older X11 apps, such as
Qt5-based ones, do not support self-scaling. I have tried `export
QT_SCALE_FACTOR`, but the mouse pointer pointed wrong items when trying to
click a submenu of  their main menu, and the window content was not painted
correctly (they were blank until I resized or moved mouse over them), so QT
scaling was not very useable.

It's inconvenient and time-consuming to repeatedly open the Display
Configuration and change it every time. I wish that toggling this setting was
possible with a system-wide shortcut (Input & Output -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts
-> System Settings).
