Elisa music player with 1.7x scaling.
Hi everyone! Here's some more details that should be hopefully enough to help
you track down the problem:
I have a laptop with a 4K screen (and now an external 4K monitor) and was
trying to track this down since I upgraded from 5.47, as the scaling is
*seriously* broken on higher scales. Googling for this showed absolutely
nothing. Desperate, I even created a new account to report this, but then this
bug popped up.
I have a scaling factor of 2.4x on the laptop and 1.7x on the external monitor.
The scaling is broken seemingly in a totally random way (a different set of
icons is broken on 1.7x and on 1.8x). This affects all apps, not just Dolphin:
KDevelop, Akregator, KWrite, Elisa, ... See the attachment for how Elisa looks
on 1.7x (it's way worse on 2.4x).
Try to scale folder icons in Dolphin using ctrl-wheel with one of the above
scales: the icons are misplaced in most cases but in some they jump to a
correct size and alignment. Similar is in Elisa in the "minimal mode" (where
the cover art fills the whole window) -- resize the window and see how randomly
the cover art jumps around.
At first I suspected it has something to do with Qt because it's seemingly
affecting all Qt-based apps I use, but today I managed to track it down to
`kiconthemes` (so *not* kio): downgrading that package to 5.47 (I'm on Arch)
makes everything usable again. Looking around, there isn't many commits in this
particular project and I have a high suspicion this is the root of all evil:
https://github.com/KDE/kiconthemes/commit/20f7137145f6b6fb38d2c3dd01a8443b8315cf41
Found also this with more screenshots (seriously, why there aren't more people
hitting this?) -- if someone has an account there, could you mention this bug
there? The suggested solution with xorg.conf solved absolutely nothing for me.

Btw., Nate, thanks for your hard work. Your Sunday blog posts are always a
happy read :)
