Bug ID: 416124
Summary: Inconsistent font size issue
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.17.5
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: jf.mun...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Font sizes are inconsistent across KDE programs.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Upgrade plasma-workspace from version 5.17.4-1 to 5.17.5-1
2. Relog
3. Open Dolphin, Elisa, Kate or Konsole
OBSERVED RESULT
Whenever you open these apps, the font is larger that everywhere else, which
makes the interface look distorted. It doesn't happen anywhere else: System
Settings, Info Center, and all non-KDE apps that I've tested, such as Chromium
and Audacity, are completely unaffected.
I've tried everything, from changing fonts, font sizes, anti-aliasing, forced
font DPI, scaling... When I mess with these settings, I can eventually get the
affected apps to look normal, but then everything else will look too small.
I was finally able to pinpoint the issue, after a lot of downgrading packages,
and the culprit is the plasma-workspace package. Versions 5.17.4-1 and below
are fine.
EXPECTED RESULT
Font sizes should be consistent across programs.
