Bug ID: 464902
Summary: Lowering the resolution of a display in a
multi-display configuration squishes the screen
Classification: Plasma
Product: KScreen
Version: 5.26.90
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: kscreen-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: wh...@protonmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
When lowering the resolution of any display, the screen gets "squished" to 50%
the monitor's height.
My monitor setup consists of 3 monitors with mixed resolutions (1920x1080,
2560x1440, 1920x1080).
I also tried switching a display to vertical mode and it got squished from the
sides rather than top and bottom (still 50% height of the monitor)
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up multiple displays
2. Go to System Settings > Display and Monitor > Display Configuration
3. Lower the resolution of one display (aspect ratio does not seem to matter)
OBSERVED RESULT
Width of the display covers the entirety of the monitor while the height gets
"squished" down to 50% the height of the monitor.
EXPECTED RESULT
Resolution should be properly scaled to the monitor.
