Bug ID: 366227
Summary: System Settings under Display and Monitor does not
scale viewport
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.7.2
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Multi-screen support
Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
Reporter: mich...@butash.net
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
When I access Display and Monitor from System Settings with 3x 48" 4k TV's, a
generally small window, the monitor representation is far too huge for the
viewport used to rearrange the displays. They need to scale with the dpi to
represent a usable configuration. I'll attach an image of what I mean, it's
just a UI bug for abnormal sized displays vs. dpi, but makes reordering the
displays a gigantic pain, requiring me to open the settings window to like
3500x1200 to reorder things comfortably.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install multiple 4k tv (3x used in test bed)
2. Open "System Settings", navigating to "Display and Monitors"
3. Observe abnormally giant representation of monitors taking up 90% of the
viewport, making it impossible to reorder displays without expanding the
settings window to gigantic proportions.
Actual Results:
It requires resizing of the window to almost a full display width of 3500
pixels + to manage moving displays comfortably vs. the display scaling itself
according to the viewport and dpi.
Expected Results:
Smaller representations of 3x monitors scaled into the viewport to reorder them
comfortably within the given pixel space available. Monitors x Quantity Wide
should always equal less than the viewport, scaled to the space available, or
resize itself appropriately for the user to manage this.
This is more dpi optimization needed with changing usages. I am using 3x 48"
hdtv's as my monitors now, something of a corner case, but I'd imagine this
exacerbated with current generation 4k displays in 24-34" desktop displays
shipping @ 4k too.
