Description Wilbur Jaywright 2025-05-15 01:08:18 UTC 
SUMMARY
I have two 1920x1080 monitors, one plugged into my DisplayPort port, and another plugged into HDMI (same GPU). If I set the scale of each monitor to be different, LibreOffice always takes on the scale of the HDMI one. For example, if the HDMI monitor is set to 160% and the DisplayPort one is set to 100%, Libre office looks ridiculously huge on the DisplayPort one.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Have two monitors of same resolution connected as described.
2. Set one to higher display scale in Settings -> Display & Monitor
3. Open LibreOffice, and move it between the two monitors.

OBSERVED RESULT
LibreOffice takes on the scale of one monitor, but keeps that scale when moved to or started on the other: Same monitor each time.

EXPECTED RESULT
LibreOffice scales naturally between windows, like Konsole.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: No
macOS: No
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 42 x64
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.14.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
My GPU is an NVidia RTX 2060 SUPER.

IDK, maybe this is an XWayland bug, or even a LibreOffice bug. Please redirect me as needed. Thanks!

Please report this to LibreOffice.
