Description thomsonmx 2020-06-07 21:28:19 UTC 
SUMMARY
i have laptop with a full hd 14" screen. So all is very small. To work better I scale the screen in the seetings for example to 125%. Then all windows get a bold black border (window decoration / aurorae) even if no window border was set. If you scale the screen more the border gets even thicker. Additionally I saw some visual problems in some other places. For example the check boxes seem to get a small shadow or something like this looking strange.  

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to the settings and set the display scaling to 125 %. or more.
2. All windows get a bold black frame - even if you set "no borders".
3. You can test it with most of the window decorations (aurorare) - for example with "Qogir". 

OBSERVED RESULT
s. above.

EXPECTED RESULT
Windows should not get any thicker border then in 100% scaling setting. If I scale the screen I do not want to scale the window decoration. It looks quire ugly.
