System Settings with Wayland
Please post the output of xrdb -query You have to restart the system or kwin_x11 after changing the global scale factor on X11; it doesn't take effect instantly the way it does on Wayland. IIRC there's supposed to be a message on the page that tells you this. Did no such message appear after you changed the scale?

Did > no such message appear after you changed the scale? I set global scale factor to 250% back in Plasma 5, far before that bug appeared. When I upgraded to Plasma 6, I switched to Wayland since it became the default option. The first time I noticed the bug was when I changed back to X11, on Plasma 6.2.?. After that, this bug appeared every time I switched to X11, so it's obviously a bug. Besides, I just tried to change the scale, and no, there was no message telling me this. Wait, I just set the global scale factor to 100% and then back to 250%, then the bug disappears. That is so strange! Created attachment 178625 [details]

Make sure that you have things such as xsettingsd and so on installed. Also check `forceFontDPI` in `[General]` in `~/.config/kcmfonts` (In reply to Vlad Zahorodnii from comment #9) > Xft.dpi is wrong.

Also check `forceFontDPI` in `[General]` in > `~/.config/kcmfonts` I just ran `xrdb -query` again, and the values changed: $ xrdb -query Xcursor.size: 60 Xcursor.theme: breeze_cursors Xft.antialias: 1 Xft.dpi: 240 Xft.hinting: 1 Xft.hintstyle: hintslight Xft.rgba: rgb It seems that changing the global scale factor in System Settings updated the DPI config and made it correct.

It seems that this bug can be easily fixed by updating the Global Scale Factor in System Settings. Should I close this bug now? Here are two possible reasons not to close this bug now: 1. An update broke the backward compatibility of Plasma config about Global Scale Factor. Users have to re-assign the Global Scale Factor to make it work correctly, which may bring inconvenience. 2. There *should* be a message telling you to restart the system when changing Global Scale Factor, but there is not. 🐛🧹 ⚠️ This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days.
