Hi,  
When I edit the display resolution, the SDDM is not respecting it and still very small.  
I tried (SDDM apply plasma settings), but it didn’t work.  
I also tried (Enable HiDPI), but nothing happened.

I actually had the same issue when I was using vanilla arch and I fixed it, but I don’t remember the solution.

This is my system [https://i.imgur.com/2OgzCbG.png](https://i.imgur.com/2OgzCbG.png)  
I am using Nvidia card with 470xx driver.

Thanks in advance.
