XWayland submits unscaled sizes to window management #3555

Open RAOF opened 3 weeks ago

RAOF commented 3 weeks ago

So, here: https://github.com/canonical/mir/blob/6344c950d66bffe74319b5879c45390c45dd4379/src/server/frontend_xwayland/xwayland_surface.cpp#L568-L604 we take the window size from the X11 configure event (so, in unscaled coordinates) and pass it through to the WM code: https://github.com/canonical/mir/blob/6344c950d66bffe74319b5879c45390c45dd4379/src/server/frontend_xwayland/xwayland_surface.cpp#L1191-L1240

I think this is wrong? Isn't window management done in logical pixels, rather than display pixels?

This might potentially affect 1) window management and/or 2) decoration sizing (at least on the first frame?)

Or… is it?

Or… is it?

I think XWayland scaling and Wayland scaling both break different things in different ways

It is. And some scenarios need that ("cloning" with the second display with twice the dimensions and running at scale 2).
