Mutter Continues Refining Its Display, HiDPI Support

Written by Michael Larabel in GNOME on 21 June 2017 at 06:35 PM EDT. Add A Comment

GNOME's Mutter 3.25.3 window manager / compositor is now available as the newest release in the path towards GNOME 3.26.

Mutter 3.25.3 changes include implementing configurable monitor scales for X11, fixed handling of tiled monitors, fixing logic for HiDPI scaling of TV outputs, and other display-related work. There are also other non-display related fixes and one other change worth noting is Mutter will now respect EXIF data concerning image orientation for background images.

More details on the fixes and improvements for today's Mutter 3.25.3 release via this Git commit. GNOME 3.26 will be released as stable in September.
