The scale script accepts the iPad 6 modes, 1536x2048 and 2048x1536. On this iPad 7 Wi-Fi the panel is 1620x2160 at 60 Hz, so login left the scale at 1 and the desktop was too small to use. Adding 1620x2160 and 2160x1620 makes that same script set scale 2. Scale 2 is what is running on this J171. 2160x1620 is the same panel in landscape, so a rotation still matches. iPad 6 modes are unchanged.

The scale script accepted only the iPad 6 modes, so a 1620x2160 iPad 7
stayed at scale 1. Accept that panel in both orientations and set scale 2,
which is what is in use on one J171.
Both sides added a line at the top of the Desktop list in the changelog;
keep both.

Yes I most certainly do! X is the global town square and de facto free speech platform. Everyone should have an X account!
