Public bug reported: Relevant askubuntu post: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1293101/how- do-i-correct-the-preview-image-aspect-ratio-in-the-desktop-display
See the included images. On Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and 20.10, images shown on the desktop are horizontally stretched. I am using a 4k built-in screen scaled to 200% with no external monitors. On the desktop: Image 1 In the file explorer (note the aspect ratio is correct here): Image 2 Unfortunately I don't know enough about Nautilus / Ubuntu to search for the right keywords, since I haven't found links to this issue elsewhere. To my knowledge, this is unreported.
