The expected font size is used by Bleachbit, a GTK3 app. Qalculate! Qt5 and Dolphin do not use the correct font size. The only thing that does is the clock.

This is caused by a change in X11, see https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/1241#note_1149546 A workaround is to set "Force font DPI" to 96 in the font settings *** Bug 445252 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Yeah the workaround by Nicolas fixes issue for me. Sorry I didn't know my bug report was a duplicate one. *** Bug 445258 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 445269 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** (In reply to Nicolas Fella from comment #2) > A workaround is to set "Force font DPI" to 96 in the font settings This worked, thanks! *** Bug 445280 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 445305 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 445309 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Created attachment 143442 [details]

*** Bug 445314 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I hope the devs added a real fix so that we don't need to use Nicolas' workaround |
Created attachment 143384 [details] The expected font size is used by Bleachbit, a GTK3 app. Qalculate! Qt5 and Dolphin do not use the correct font size. The only thing that does is the clock. SUMMARY After updating to Plasma 5.23.3-1 from the Arch Linux repos, in an X11 session, all Qt5 applications' fonts are way bigger than they are supposed to be. This also applies to all plasmashell components, as well as KWin window titles. Absolutely none of this is reproducible in a Plasma Wayland session. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Update KDE Plasma to 5.23.3-1 on Arch Linux 2. Reboot OBSERVED RESULT Observe SDDM's font sizes are way bigger than they were before updating. After logging in to an X11 session, all fonts in plasmashell, the KDE apps, and other Qt5 apps are way bigger than they were before updating. All GTK apps, as well as the clock widget, look totally fine. EXPECTED RESULT No changes after updating except for the intended minor tweaks and bug fixes. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.3-1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.87.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.14.16-arch1-1 Graphics Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have reproduced this bug on two separate machines. Neither are using NVIDIA GPUs. The second one is running a completely stock KDE, except for changing the theme to Breeze Dark and upping the font sizes by 1pt.
