Bug ID: 457698
Summary: Changing display scale on Wayland requires users to
log out and log back in.
Product: systemsettings
Version: master
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_kscreen
Assignee: kscreen-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: joshuaandre...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Changing the display scaling on Plasma Wayland session causes a blurry taskbar,
launcher, and applets. This requires the user to log out and log back in (or
restart plasmashell).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Change display scaling on Plasma Wayland session.
OBSERVED RESULT
Panels and applets are blurry after changing display scale.
EXPECTED RESULT
My proposal to this problem is to have Plasmashell automatically restart when a
display scale is changed on the wayland session. The same animation shown when
logging in should be shown while plasmashell is restarting. This way, users
will not have to log out to get crisper scaling. I currently do not know how to
code, so I can't implement this myself. However, It would be great if someone
could make this idea reality!
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
