Description kde@warpspeed.dk 2023-02-28 00:23:06 UTC 
SUMMARY
Plasma-welcome is way oversized on a Pinephone running Plasma-Mobile

OBSERVED RESULT
The welcome screen is so much larger than the screen, that no contents can be read,
and buttons are not available.
Only luck is, that the skip button is reachable.

EXPECTED RESULT
Everything is readable on the screen.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2023-02-28 17:15:41 UTC 
Pinephone screen is 720x1440, with a default scale factor of 2x, which means an effective scaled resolution of 360x720. So we need to fix in that.

Converting to GridUnits at the default font of Noto Sans 10pt (which results in an 18px GridUnit), this means a minimum size of 20x40 GridUnits.

Make the page layouts mobile-friendly

This app was developed for a desktop use case, but people are running it
on mobile devices too. Getting it in a better shape for that use case
turns out to not be very hard--mostly a matter of replacing long row
layouts with grid or column layouts, making graphics dynamically resize,
reducing margins a bit, etc.

This commit does not adapt the *content* for mobile use cases; for that,
see https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-welcome/-/issues/13.
