I've been able to tinker it, with your help. I've adjusted the
scaling.desktop file to start a script instead of calling gsettings.
This is necessary because several commands are needed:

#! /bin/bash
sleep 1
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 1.61
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 1.6

All of them are necessary. Or so it seems.

Now it - somehow - works. :-)

Thanks for your help!

Volker
