Description Angel 2019-10-30 23:29:11 UTC

SUMMARY
Using X11

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Change scaling e.g. from 2.0 to 1.0, hit apply.
2. Go to Fonts and change DPI


OBSERVED RESULT
System settings crashes

EXPECTED RESULT
Settings does not crash

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0
Qt Version: 5.12.4

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I understand that when you change scaling this also changes font DPI so manually changing it right after changing scaling is stepping on something. The reason I changed DPI after scaling is becuase I wanted a different DPI then the one it defaults to and wanted it to take effect after my next restart.

If an application crashes we need a backtrace to do anything. You should see a sad face icon in the system tray after a crash occurs.

I'm on a different machine with another distro, but can reproduce the error, the icon you described does not appear but there was a trace printed in journal. let me know if this is sufficient, I can recreate in my other machine later this weekend.
