Description Len Lawrence 2017-03-04 19:32:29 CET
Description of problem:
Some graphical interfaces launched from MCC suffer from an oversizing problem on a high resolution screen (3K).  For instance drakconnect; 'next' button offscreen so it is not possible to try a connection.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Mageia-6-sta2-x86_64-DVD

How reproducible:
Needs to be tried on other hardware.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install GNOME Wayland from the classic ISO
2. Try all the DE choices in the login list
3.

Should be checked by MCC maintainer IMO.

@Len: please attach a screenshot
@Olavl: err, that's a standard gtk+ button.
Those've worked smoothly for more than a decade so that would be a gtk+ regression, especially since it has now dedicated code for high resolution screen.

OK.  Invoked mcc, selected 'add a network device', unmaximized window, used Return to move from screen to screen.  Two screenshots attached; a bit fuzzy because they needed shrinking.

There's nothing?

3K display on laptop with nvidia using nouveau driver.  Most things are oversized on this installation - wrong dpi value.

Comment 7 Thierry Vignaud 2017-03-06 13:04:52 CET
I wouldn't be surprised if there was corner issues between highres & GtkPlug/GtkSocket
Comment 8 Olav Vitters 2020-04-12 21:43:03 CEST
Hmm, we should've pushed this upstream I guess. This bug is kind of old. I don't have a highres screen. Is it still an issue?
