This is a Firefox bug. I encountered something nearly identical in Thunderbird a while back and it was their bug; see Bug 491762, and it's tracked on Thunderbird's size with https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1916537, which is still open Very likely both apps share the same code that has this bug. |
Created attachment 179943 [details] Firefox profile selection window SUMMARY When opening Firefox with `firefox -p` to choose a profile, the profile selection window contents will overflow the window borders if you drag it from one display to another - if the two displays have different resolution and scaling This is reproducible in Plasma 6.3.3 as well as git-master STEPS TO REPRODUCE **System config** At least two profiles in Firefox Have two displays with different resolutions (reproduced with a laptop with a monitor connected via HDMI cable). Make sure at least one display is above 100% scaling (in my case it was the laptop) This cannot be reproduced on my system if both displays are at 100% scaling 1. Run `firefox -p` to bring up the profile selection window 2. Drag the window from one display to the other, and back OBSERVED RESULT When on the display with 100% scaling, the window appears normally When on the other display above 100% scaling, the contents overflow the window. The text briefly appeared stretched and fuzzy, before the text changed to look normal (but still overflowing the window container) EXPECTED RESULT The window contents remain clear, and within the window borders regardless of which screen the window is on SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Solus 4.7 KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0 Qt Version: 6.8.2 Kernel Version: 6.12.19-315.current (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-11800H @ 2.30GHz Memory: 62.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor 1: Intel® UHD Graphics Graphics Processor 2: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU ADDITIONAL INFORMATION This wasn't an issue before Plasma 6.3.3, and I hadn't seen it until today despite running 6.3.3 for a while This corresponds to updating Firefox today and restarting it (v137.0)
