Tiny systray

With this update, my systray became tiny. Shouldn’t be like this. 
I’m using UI scaling via forced fonts DPI (163) on a 4K monitor and adjusted symbol sizes (Panel: 48).

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.84.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Comment 1 João Figueiredo 2021-08-15 16:31:34 UTC 
Same here, also affects my desktop and application launcher icons. DPI=144 and Scaling=150%
I'm using KDE Frameworks 5.85.0
Comment 2 João Figueiredo 2021-08-15 16:35:51 UTC 
I'm pretty sure this is different from #440984
Comment 3 Maximilian Böhm 2021-08-15 16:41:21 UTC 
It’s gone now for me with latest Arch updates…
Comment 4 Maximilian Böhm 2021-08-15 18:25:23 UTC 
Tiny icons again after a reboot, huh…
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2021-08-16 18:07:07 UTC 
For people using Frameworks 5.84 or earlier: forcing the DPI and not using the global scaling system is not a recommended or supported method of scaling things, precisely because it leads to issues like this.

For people using Frameworks 5.85 with fractional scaling on X11: you are experiencing a bug that I introduced, sorry. I fixed it yesterday and asked distros to backport it.
Comment 6 Maximilian Böhm 2021-08-18 15:08:33 UTC 
Arch Linux seems to have fixed this issue with an update. So this is fixed indeed.
Never had an icon scale problem like this before in the 6 years I’m using HiDPI via fonts scaling now.
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2021-08-18 15:09:29 UTC 
Yes, I suspect the Arch packagers backported the commit.
Comment 8 João Figueiredo 2021-08-18 15:12:55 UTC 
Yup, they have: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/commits/packages/plasma-framework/trunk
Thanks Nate! :)
