Description Marcos GutiƩrrez Alonso 2022-06-01 09:21:20 UTC
SUMMARY
In a 4K monitor, the resolution of the context menus is not correct. When I hover over an item, all other items "crash" (dissappear) and the one I hovered renders at the correct resolution.

It's hard to explain so here's a video demonstration: https://youtu.be/drwGeXqMgFA

This happens to EVERY right-click context menu on Wayland: in the plasma panel, in the desktop, in the application launcher... everywhere.

This does NOT happen on my secondary 1080p monitor.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable 4K resolution in wayland
2. Right-click anywhere to bring up a context menu
3. Hover over an element and watch the elements become invisible

OBSERVED RESULT
1080p resolution on context menus when they load.

EXPECTED RESULT
They appear with the appropriate resolution.
