Fractional Scaling Not Applied By Desktop Editors

[TheRoarkster]

This issue is unique.

• [X] I have used the search tool and did not find an issue describing my bug.

Operating System

Linux (DEB package)

Version information

7.5.1-1

Expected Behavior

DesktopEditors should apply fractional scaling settings as directed by the operating system and scale the entire application, including toolbars, text, etc.

Actual Behavior

DesktopEditors does not apply fractional scaling settings from the operating system. As a result, while all other apps look normal size, DesktopEditors looks teeny tiny (see attached example). I have tried this on two different machines with different sized screens, though both are running Manjaro GNOME.

Reproduction Steps

1. Install DesktopEditors
2. Open Operating System Settings and enable Fractional Scaling, set to some large number like 150% or 200%.
3. Open another application: see application apply Fractional Scaling.
4. Open DesktopEditors: observe application not apply Fractional Scaling, resulting

Hello, @TheRoarkster Please tell me, is the problem still relevant in desktop editors version 8.0.0.99? I checked on Debian Gnome and this problem did not reoccur.

Hello, @TheRoarkster Please tell me, is the problem still relevant in desktop editors version 8.0.0.99? I checked on Debian Gnome and this problem did not reoccur.

I am on 8.0.0-1. It is still an issue. But I have not rebooted since the install. I will be able to later today and will write back.

[TheRoarkster]

@Rita-Bubnova - rebooted. Still no fractional scaling. Here is the info from the "About" tab: ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors version 8.0.0.99 (deb).

[TheRoarkster]

Just reporting that this is still an issue with version 8.0.1.31.

[matveevms]

Do I understand you correctly, the whole problem is that the application does not automatically pick up fractional scaling on your system? If you manually specify a scale of 150-200% in the application settings, does the interface become larger? Or doesn't it scale?

[TheRoarkster]

Yes, that is correct. The application does not pick up fractional scaling that is set on my system.

Thank you! I did not know there was a separate scaling setting in the app. That does work, in that it scales to the setting in the app.

That said, it will not automatically adjust for changes to system scaling, like other apps do, so this should still be something that is addressed.
