Description Wilbur Jaywright 2025-05-15 01:08:18 UTC
SUMMARY
I have two 1920x1080 monitors, one plugged into my DisplayPort port, and another plugged into HDMI (same GPU). If I set the scale of each monitor to be different, LibreOffice always takes on the scale of the HDMI one. For example, if the HDMI monitor is set to 160% and the DisplayPort one is set to 100%, Libre office looks ridiculously huge on the DisplayPort one.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Have two monitors of same resolution connected as described.
2. Set one to higher display scale in Settings -> Display & Monitor
3. Open LibreOffice, and move it between the two monitors.

OBSERVED RESULT
LibreOffice takes on the scale of one monitor, but keeps that scale when moved to or started on the other: Same monitor each time.

EXPECTED RESULT
LibreOffice scales naturally between windows, like Konsole.

Please report this to LibreOffice.
