Created attachment 188622 [details] Screencast of XTerm resize attempts SUMMARY XTerm + Wayland + Screen Scaling + "Obey geometry restrictions" behaves strangely. (Not sure whether the component "xwayland" is correct here ...) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start from a fresh openSUSE Krypton, change session to use Plasma on Wayland 2. Configure a screen scaling of 120% 3. Add a KWin rule to obey geometry restrictions for XTerms, like this (from kwinrulesrc) [5f52965d-a159-400c-bc33-aa5d89da6d97] Description=Application settings for XTerm clientmachine=localhost strictgeometry=true strictgeometryrule=2 wmclass=XTerm wmclassmatch=1 4. Open an XTerm and move it into the right-hand side of the screen 5. Attempt to resize the XTerm OBSERVED RESULT The XTerm window does not allow to resize to all sizes - instead only to very small window size or very large ones. It seems that KWin applies some completely strange resizing restrictions and not only (what I would expect) the resize-by-character restrictions. See also attached screen cast, which shows it better than I can explain it. EXPECTED RESULT XTerm window resizes smoothly and without jumping between allowed sizes.
