SUMMARY

Since the last update on Manjaro I've some scaling issues:

The login sddm button is tiny (bug 427322) and now I'm also facing the issue that Widgets like Kicker, the Networkmanager etc. and the Notifications scale wrong once I logout and login back again.

After a reboot everything is normal again.

I already tried to solve the issue by deleting the cache under ~/.cache followed from a reboot, but it hasn't helped to cure the logout/re-login issue.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Scaling 2.0
2. Reboot
3. Logout
4. Login

OBSERVED RESULT
Notifications and Kicker are scaled to 1.0, everything else seems to stay at 2.0

What exactly do you mean by "scale wrong"? Your screenshot doesn't display anything obviously wrong to me, but I don't know how it's supposed to look given your resolution and scaling preferences. Can you attached screenshot of how it's supposed to look once you get it working right again?

Here the widgets scale as they are supposed to: like 2.0

Gotcha, that's helpful. How odd. I wonder if 5.20 will fix it for you. Can you check once it's released and becomes available as an update?

Sure! :)

Did 5.20 fix it? Or even 5.21?

Yes I think so.
