[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1193555] [NEW] Add scale options to window menu

[anatoly techtonik]

Public bug reported:

This is a workaround against bug #504368, which makes QEMU window text
blurry if resized. This is a common and annoying problem:

The ability to resize window is a feature - it allows to adjust viewport of 
QEMU to the convenient working area. But there should be an option to restore 
the size of the window or scale it like 1:2, 2:1 etc. I don't know about if 
that should be exposed to QEMU monitor as some "window <command>" set , but it 
would be extremely convenient to provide at least Ctrl+Alt+U functionality 
through window level menu.

Ubuntu 13.04, QEMU 1.4.0
