Hello all, is the "For only this specific display arrangement" in the KDE 
Plasma spin of F32 actually functional? I have 15" HiDPI laptop that I dock 
with a Thunderbolt dock to a non-HiDPI external display. Since this machine has 
an nVidia card (not my first choice just what I ended up with) I'm stuck on an 
X11 session so mixed DPI isn't going to really work. I scale my internal 
display at 175% and the external at 100%. 

I thought the solution would be to disable the internal display and just have 
the external on while docked. I've tried configuring the internal display to 
175% and checking the "For only this specific display arrangement" radio button 
while un-docked and configuring the external display connected and internal 
disabled with that box checked but it never seems to actually work. As soon as 
I disconnect from the docking station the internal display re-enables as it 
should be it's still scaled at 100%. Even restarting doesn't fix it, I have to 
change it again in the display setting and reboot. Happens the other direction 
too, if I reconnect to the dock the internal display disables and the external 
display is still scaled at 175% until I rescale and reboot. 

GNOME will remember these settings even on X11 but GNOME doesn't do fractional 
scaling so I lose a good bit of real estate on the internal display at 2x. My 
next option seems like xrandr. Anyone else get this option to work in the 
Plasma spin? 

Thanks!

Leander
