Bug ID: 443215 Summary: GDK_SCALE and GDK_DPI_SCALE are hard coded and overwrite user config Product: plasmashell Version: master Platform: Archlinux Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk Reporter: cruise....@gmail.com CC: plasma-b...@kde.org Target Milestone: 1.0 SUMMARY In plasma wayland, GDK_SCALE and GDK_DPI_SCALE cannot be configured with ".pam_environment", ".profile", ".config/plasma-workspace/env", etc. The variables are set to 1 in startplasma-wayland, seemingly after loading user config. Code is here: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/blob/e6cab5d96f7b51a5cf4be3d93a7e2d4fee1cddae/startkde/startplasma-wayland.cpp#L67 STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Write `export GDK_SCALE=2` to `.profile` and `.config/plasma-workspace/env/dpi.sh`. 2. Reboot. 3. Run printenv. OBSERVED RESULT `GDK_SCALE` is 1. EXPECTED RESULT `GDK_SCALE` is expected to be 2. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS plasma-workspace 5.22.5, packaged by Arch Linux. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I edited startplasma-wayland bin file, changed string `GDK_SCALE` to `XXX_SCALE`. Now `GDK_SCALE` can be configured with `.pam_environment` as expected. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
