Summary: [wayland] Opening some windows on a scaled display
shows them distorted while they are loading
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.0.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: compositing
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: eamonn...@protonmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Opening some windows, on a scaled display only, while they are loading, will
show them distorted while they are loading. The window size itself is correct,
but the contents look as though it were scaled up from a small resolution.
It only happens with a small amount of windows, but the main one I notice it in
is when launching "Display Configuration". Note that this does not happen when
opening Display Configuration from System Settings, only if you open the
application from, say, the Application Dashboard.
The window opens fine when opened from, say, KRunner on a non-scaled display.
Due to the resolution of my scaled display, attaching a recording of the issue
is tricky. But if others are unable to reproduce or understand, I will attempt
to record one.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open "Display Configuration" on a scaled display
2. It will open distorted while it loads
OBSERVED RESULT
Some windows, such as "Display Configuration", appear with their contents
stretched and too large (although the window size is correct) when opened on a
scaled display.
EXPECTED RESULT
The "Display Configuration" window and other affected windows display correctly
and consistently across displays.
