How to make both monitors have the same scaling for SDDM (lemm.ee)

So, I just had to reinstall my system and I'm now going through setting things up and SDDM was too tiny since I have two monitors that are 4k. So I set a hidpi.conf file in /etc/sddm.conf.d and put this in it

[General]

GreeterEnvironment=QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS=1.5,QT_FONT_DPI=192

[Wayland]

EnableHiDPI=true

[X11]

EnableHiDPI=true

But now only the primary monitor is set to 1.5 scaling, and the other one is still set to 2. I also applied the sddm settings from the settings app and still the same results. Anyone knows how to make them both same scaling?

Thank you

X11 can only have one scaling across all monitors. You will have to switch to the Wayland mode for sddm, though I think that its still experimental, and then apply plasma settings to sddm.

How do I switch to Wayland mode on SDDM?

take a look at this https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/SDDM, it's at section 2.12

I got it working. It was missing another 1.5 🤦🏽‍♂️
So 1.5;1.5 dpi=192
