Hi all, I have a 4k monitor and the steam app is very tiny. I have found out that I can fix it by running the app in the terminal with steam -forcedesktopscaling 2, but it is getting tiring launching it through the terminal. Is there any way I can change something in the app itself and make it launch with that command? KDE Plasma on endeavour OS is what I’m running Tried going into the .desktop file to add the command somewhere in the “exec”, but failed. Could someone please help? Thank you

    You got it working by appending -forcedesktopscaling 2, right? try appending that so it is /usr/bin/steam-native -forcedesktopscaling 2.

    I would bet that your steam command is a link pointing to /usr/bin/steam-native. You could find out with which steam | xargs ls -al

      It fails to launch when I appended that line. It’s ok, I will just use the terminal. I’m getting sick of it. Thank you for your help
