Public bug reported: When the global scaling factor is set to 2, dconf-editor occasionally starts changing its window size causing very high CPU activity.
This occurs for example while searching: It appears dconf-editor tries to adjust the window dimensions to the size of the content. It also happens when (then) resizing the window afterwards, it tries to revert to the previous window size. This causes very high CPU activity and freezes the window content. This does not happen when the global scaling factor is set to 1. It could be related to the new window resizing method that updates the window content. org.gnome.desktop.interface.scaling-factor = 2 org.gnome.desktop.interface.text-scaling-factor = 1.0 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: dconf-editor 0.19.90-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-11.31-generic 3.13.3 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-11-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.13.2-0ubuntu5 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sat Feb 22 14:31:11 2014 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-02-02 (19 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-GNOME 14.04 "Trusty Tahr" - Alpha amd64 (20140201) SourcePackage: d-conf UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: d-conf (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug third-party-packages trusty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1283448 Title: resizing loop on high-dpi screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/d-conf/+bug/1283448/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
