cropped_dialogs

WHen I have 100% scaling all is fine,
with 125% or 150% o 2k or 4k monitors firefox dialogs (menu, popup, page security info,stored passwords) are cropped so that only a quarter of it is visible making dialogs totally unusable

See attachments.
I am not sure if it is Plasma , wayland or nvidia bug but my bugreport on https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1224161 has been completely ignored. Let's try some luck here at last to know where this bug may come from.

Please report this issue to Firefox.

for all that have the same problem , the solution is to disable
widget.wayland.fractional-scale.enabled which is supposedly a firefox test feature causing problems.

so in your adress bar type about:config
search for widget.wayland.fractional-scale.enabled
and set it to false
