Created attachment 125844 [details] krunner too big SUMMARY After upgrading my KDE Neon install on 2020-02-10, some things have been seeming off regarding the plasma desktop. Speficially: * Krunner seems "too big" * Sliders in Latte dock configuration are too big * Panel edit buttons are too big * Menu items seem too big (especially the bright blue line around the "search" box) At this point, I am not sure if this happens because of scaling. The odd thing, however, is, that it does not occur on my laptop's scaled screen. Only when I am using external unscaled screens (with the laptop screen turned off). It seemingly affects plasma 5.17.5 and plasma 5.18 STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Use an unscaled display (with a scaled display turned off?) 2. Configure to use the Breeze Dark plasma style 3. Start krunner OBSERVED RESULT Items (especially buttons) seem too big EXPECTED RESULT Items (especially buttons) are of normal size SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Neon User Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.18 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.67.0 Qt Version: 5.13.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I have moved away ~/.config in its entirety, and everything was restored to normal. The moment I apply the "Breeze Dark" plasma style, the bug occurs again. Screenshots have been attached and are available on imgur: https://imgur.com/a/wUJ7GgG I've also created a forum post regarding this issue because initially thought (and am still not confident it isn't) an issue on my end: https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=164516&p=428257#p428257

Are you using a fractional scale factor and/or forcing the font DPI to some non-default value? Are you using a high DPI screen?
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3) > Are you using a fractional scale factor and/or forcing the font DPI to some > non-default value? Are you using a high DPI screen? I am not using fractional scaling. It occurs on a non-scaled external display (scaling set to 1). It does not occur on my XPS15's internal HiDPI (scaling x2) display. It only occurs when using the Breeze Dark plasma theme.
> It only occurs when using the Breeze Dark plasma theme. Or rather, it does *not* occur when using the regular/default Plasma theme. I've been able to reproduce it on 3rd party themes as well.
Interestingly, it does not occur when using plasma's new feature to have the Plasma Theme adapt to the Colour Scheme. Broken: Selecting the "Breeze Dark" Plasma Style Works: Selecting "Breeze" Plasma Style and using the Breeze Dark colourscheme
Very strange, thanks. Cannot reproduce when using Breeze dark at 1x, FWIW.
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #7) > Very strange, thanks. Cannot reproduce when using Breeze dark at 1x, FWIW. That's odd indeed. How can I assist with providing more information? Must be the combination with scaling then.
Can you try two things: 1. clear the plasma SVG cache and then restart plasmashell (`rm ~/.cache/plasma*; plasmashell --replace`) 2. If that doesn't fix it, try enabling Qt scaling, like so: ``` export PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1 rm ~/.cache/plasma*; plasmashell --replace plasmashell --replace kwin_x11 --replace ``` Can you let me know if either of those fix the problem (assuming you're still experiencing it)?
