Public bug reported:
Package: dolphin Ubuntu release: 24.04 LTS Noble Installed affected version: 4:23.08.5-0ubuntu4 Impact: Dolphin can retain stale item-view font/style metrics after changing zoom or view font settings. On high-DPI systems using 200% scaling, this can leave item text oversized and overlapping in Details view after zooming in and back out, making file lists difficult to use. Upstream fix: The issue is fixed upstream by KDE commit 8010ae0286fb30d51fff150703096f7ebe6172a9, associated with KDE Bug 511604: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=511604 Test case: 1. On Ubuntu Noble with Dolphin 4:23.08.5-0ubuntu4, use KDE Plasma with 200% scaling. 2. Open Dolphin in Details view. 3. Zoom in and then zoom back out. 4. Observe that item text can remain oversized and overlap rows. 5. Install a Dolphin package with the upstream patch backported. 6. Repeat the zoom in/out sequence. 7. Item text should return to the expected size and no longer overlap. Regression potential: Low. The patch only updates DolphinItemListView::updateFont() to keep KItemListStyleOption.font and fontMetrics synchronized for both system-font and custom-font modes. The affected behavior is limited to item-view font handling. Verification performed: Built and installed a local Noble package based on 4:23.08.5-0ubuntu4 with the upstream patch applied. Confirmed the reported zoom/font issue no longer reproduces in Dolphin Details view. ** Affects: dolphin (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to dolphin in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2157573 Title: Dolphin keeps oversized item text after zoom in/out on Noble To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dolphin/+bug/2157573/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
