--- Comment #1 from Olivier Fourdan <fourdan at xfce.org> ---
Fractional scaling is not possible, the value must be an integer.

If you want fractional scaling, I'd suggest using GNOME Shell on Wayland (and
even in GNOME Shell, this is an experimental feature).

Alternatively, you *could* achieve the same as fractional scaling on Xorg by
using XRandR scaling, that's roughly the same logic that mutter/gnome-shell
does in Wayland.

The idea is that the clients render at an integer scale (that remains), but
then the entire output is scaled down by a fractional value (e.g. "xrandr
--output eDP1 --scale 1.5x1.5").

But that will be quite slow, and has a somehow limited scope IMHO, but maybe
that's something we could add to the display settings instead.
