[email protected] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Severity|enhancement |normal --- Comment #2 from [email protected] --- This is still an issue on Linux and on Wayland, with LibreOffice 24.8.0.3 Also I changed the Importance to "normal" rather than "enhancement" since the LibreOffice user manual states 100% zoom should display images at actual size. I know this is possible on Linux/Wayland – Krita has a good system where you can switch the zoom setting between Print Size and Pixel Size. On KDE Plasma there is currently a bug where if the Global Scaling is different on different attached monitors the scaling within applications won't be correct, but with a single monitor, or with the same scaling on both monitors, Krita is able to correctly display an A4 sized document at A4 size even while using fractional Global Scaling in KDE Plasma. Fixing this would be great, but I would actually recommend implementing a similar solution to Krita. Instead of "Pixel Size", I think "UI Size" would be a more appropriate second zoom option for LibreOffice, and describes the current behaviour on Linux ("Pixel Size" in Krita means 100% zoom displays an image dot to dot accurate, while 100% zoom in LibreOffice assumes an arbitrary size which is then affected by global scaling options). These two options – "UI Size" and "Print Size" – would allow the user to either zoom a document relative to their UI and other apps, or to zoom relative to the physical size of the document. Why keep current behaviour as an option? If you use a TV as a monitor to reduce eye strain, zooming by actual size is nonsense, especially if you are using it as a second monitor. A document at 100% zoom on your close monitor will look tiny on your distant monitor. This is an extreme example, a more common one being a laptop with a small screen and small, compact scaling settings, that is frequently docked and used with a larger monitor. This is my use case and for that it is useful to have documents display at a smaller physical size on my small screen along with the rest of my smaller UI. But the option to view at actual size is still important. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
