gnome Looks like this needs to be extended to Cinnamon as well for 6RC. Please add screenshots. What are "system tools"? If this occurs just for some Mageia applications the assignee is wrong. CC:

olav System tools? Like MCC and the drak* suite of tools it invokes. Those tools on their own behave better. The scaling is the same inside or outside MCC but invoked from a terminal the tools, like drakconnect have a smaller window with the bottom buttons visible and the scrollbars allow full access to the parameters/properties setting list. I shall try to get screenshots but it is likely to take a while to retrace my steps. Hopefully the test installation is still available (i.e. not overwritten). On the same machine that the above remarks apply to there was trouble with firefox. firefox occupied the whole of the screen but showed only about half of its window. Initially the scrollbar did not have enough range to reach the bottom of the window but this seemed to change after an update. I need to try and repeat everything to make sure and to look for diagnostics. Don't know if the journal file would contain anything useful. An excerpt from the riseup pad: Logged in under Wayland and configured system from terminal. The guis were oversized as reported earlier. While running urpmi --auto-update a message appeared briefly about something missing and then "defaulting to background resolution 1600x1200". If GNOME thinks this is the default screen resolution then that would explain why things appear oversized, I think. The xdpi value would be wrong. The actual resolution is 2880x1620. The scaling problem affects GNOME Classic and GNOME on Xorg. For several of the administrative tools there is the terminal launch workaround but firefox is unusable. IceWM does not have the scaling problem. Created attachment 9378 [details]

Note that the weather application has a stock icon in a more appropriate size.

mageia Checked this on a workstation with 4K screen. It looks fine in GNOME Wayland, Classic and Xorg.
