SUMMARY

I've seen this behavior only in Prusa Slicer so far, but before I upgrade to 5.27 today (and also to kf 5.103), it now doesn't scale.

If I run it with GDK_SCALE set, it starts normally as I usually see it. It doesn't matter if I set "GDK_SCALE" or "GDK_SCALE=1", result is the same.
I didn't use any env variables before so I think there could be some regression.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.0

Just as I filed this issue, I opened discord and it has same behaviour. Interface is tiny and if I launch discord with GDK_SCALE= discord, it starts having normal scale.

So I suspect it isn't wxgtk nor prusa-slicer issue.

Just to clarify "doesn't scale" == looks really small on your high res screen?

Yeah. Maybe that was wrong wording here, but yes.
