[plasmashell] [Bug 396770] Icons have wrong scaling on HiDPI
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396770 --- Comment #13 from el...@seznam.cz --- Sure. I have added 2 screenshots. One from wayland (Wayland + scale factor 2 + dock size 48px) and one from X11 (X11 + scale factor 2 + dock size 96px). X11 screenshot is 4K, but wayland screenshot was for some unknown reason saved only as full HD. I used Spectacle. Anyway, worst looking icon is Thunderbird. Hopefully you will see what I mean. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396770 --- Comment #9 from el...@seznam.cz --- Thank you very much for that comprehensive explanation. It certainly made things clearer. So I guess best thing for me will be to wait for Wayland session becoming stable enough to be used daily. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396770 David Edmundson changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEEDSINFO |UNCONFIRMED Resolution|WAITINGFORINFO |--- --- Comment #8 from David Edmundson --- Things are complex: - plasma does it's own scaling thing making things just bigger based on font size. It was first, but it has a limited scope and is somewhat rubbish (hence context menu being wrong) - Qt has a thing to have a separate physical and virtual pixels within the client app. Mostly fantastic. Used in all apps. Causes a mess for things like panels where we have to communicate between apps or the WM which don't use the same virtual pixels as the client sees. Given we have above, it's disabled in Plasma. - wayland also understands scaling that has the separate virtual and physical pixels. It requires the "qt scaling" above to keep things high res but at least we now use the same virtual pixels between app communication. On wayland we enabled Qt scaling, using the internal env I added. When enabled in general as your virtual font size is now scaled back to 96dpi, Plasma's scaling cancels out. (even if it makes the code a mess) Latte dock being plasma is mostly doing it the "plasma way" but it has a setting in "px" which doesn't fit in within the Plasma font approach and won't cancel out when we enable scaling. Your initial bug. It also /might/ do it's own icon pixmap handling, which needs to be adapted for Qt scaling. (potential jaggedness) - In any case, I shall look into fixing latte + wayland having jagged edges. If that happens to fix anything else, great. Otherwise, tough. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396770 --- Comment #7 from el...@seznam.cz --- Update to my previous observations: Wayland + scale factor 2 + dock size 48px = OK, but icons have jagged edges Wayland + scale factor 2 + dock size 96px = large icons, but no jagged edges Wayland + scale factor 2 + dock size 48px + PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1= OK, but icons have jagged edges So it seems that PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING has no effect in Wayland session. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396770 --- Comment #5 from el...@seznam.cz --- I would like to have latte dock of size 48px. With various settings it works like this: X11 + scale factor 1 + dock size 48px = OK X11 + scale factor 2 + dock size 48px = small icons X11 + scale factor 2 + dock size 96px = OK X11 + scale factor 2 + dock size 48px + PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1 = size OK, but icons have jagged edges Wayland + scale factor 2 + dock size 48px = OK Wayland + scale factor 2 + dock size 96px = large icons I believe that scaling should be done on background and front end application should be using same size of 48px regardless of scale factor. Of course front end application must be aware of scale factor when displaying high resolution content like images or bitmap icons. I'm also attaching another picture. It shows desktop right click menu. In front is my actual desktop and in the background is VirtualBox which basically doubles the size of display without scaling. However as you can see font size about the same (I have font DPI set to 192). But icons on real desktop are only half the size as they should be. When I set PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1, icons are scaled as expected and font size remains the same. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396770 --- Comment #3 from el...@seznam.cz --- And when I say plasma panel, I mean System Tray icons which are quite small without PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1. Also right click menu uses small icons which look like 16px icons on HiDPI display. And to make things more confusing, Wayland session seems to do this differently. System Tray icons have correct size and Latte Dock icons have double size. So this actually behaves like I would expect it to. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396770 --- Comment #2 from el...@seznam.cz --- Let's say I use icons with size 32px and scale 1. Then I switch scale to 2, I still should be using icons with size 32px, right? Or is pixel always considered physical pixel and then I should use 64px? I'm coming from web world where pixel is considered as virtual pixel and screen density manages how many physical pixels are mapped to virtual pixel. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
