http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1209061 Bug ID: 1209061 Summary: KDE @ 4k resolution issues Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE Workspace (Plasma) Assignee: opensuse-kde-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: alekshs@hotmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- 4k resolution was always problematic for me in tumbleweed, you always have something that doesn't work. The proposed solution is to scale the display 200%, but at that point you are simply using 1920x1080 multiplied x4, thus losing the detail of 4k - and the reason why one bought a 4k monitor: To see the extra details, to watch 4k videos, etc etc. In other words this is *NOT* a solution. I might as well have stayed with a 1920x1080 monitor. Anyway... I managed to work around the issue by forcing the dpi of the fonts to something like 192 or 196 and most apps were ok, including chromium which i mainly use. All these worked for a couple months until I zypper dup'ed and now some applications honor these forced dpi and others don't. (wtf?). Chromium is now in very small mode - almost unusable, kde konsole and other qt apps are small-fonted, yet the workspace is ok, like the launch menu, desktop icon fonts, etc. These seem to honor the forced dpi. So now I take the fonts up from size 12 to 18 to start seeing things again in apps like konsole and other qt apps and the taskbar font sizes, launchers, desktop icons become enormous (because they respected the forced dpi in the first place) while the apps themselves are becoming normalish again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
