Bug ID: 383922 Summary: Display scaling brakes Kate's spellcheck highlighting on high DPI monitor Product: kate Version: 17.04.2 Platform: Neon Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: usability Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: kwrite Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: pietruszk...@o2.pl Target Milestone: --- The highlighting of misspelled word fails for me to work in Kate when the display is scaled-up. I have a high DPI screen 3200x1800 and I am using 1.5 scaling factor for the display. When the highlighting works: Create a brand new user > log in to it > open Kate > type something > press Ctrl+O > red highlighting of misspelled words appears When it doesn't: Go to System Settings > Display > Displays > Scale Display > change the display scale to 1.5 (one-point-five) > log out > log in > open Kate > ..... > NO highlighting :-( I've also checked on my original account. Changing the display scale to 1.0 brings back the highlighting (but letters in icons, texts, windows etc are to small to read comfortably). My system: Qt 5.7.1 KDE Frameworks 5.35.0 kf5-config 1.0 plasmashell 5.10.2 Kate 17.04.2 , the xcb windowing system -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
