Display settings

Hey folks,

Wine defaults to 96 DPI in its graphics settings configuration. This is...
tiny. Barely readable. But if I change it to anything else, Wine windows become
effectively unclickable on my secondary displays. I can drag them around by the
title bar and close them, but clicking anywhere else in the window does not
register. I can still interact with the program via keyboard, but given that
one of the applications I need to run is a (lightweight) pixel graphics editor,
this doesn't really help.

A sample application can be found here:
https://romhack.ing/database/content/entry/N9Nw5JQBNs8FWu0CVJIp/yy-chr
My toolchain includes multiple tile editors and hex editors, and this issue
affects all of them.

I'm running Fedora 43 KDE Plasma on a ThinkPad X13 gen 3 AMD laptop. It's
hooked up to a dock, which is connected to two additional external displays. My
laptop's display is 1920x1200 (16:10), with 125% scaling applied. The external
displays are 2560x1440 (16:9) with 100% scaling applied. They are placed above
my internal display. None of the displays are clones. See attached screenshot.

I have tried every combination of checkboxes in the Graphics panel (the "Allow
the window manager to decorate the windows" and "Allow the window manager to
control the windows" options); changing these only makes the title bar
noninteractive as well as the window itself. I've tried forcing X11 instead of
Wayland; no improvement. I've tried setting my primary display to 100% scaling
to match my externals, but this doesn't help either. Neither does disabling the
theme in the Desktop Integration tab. Nothing I've done seems to help.

Running Wine-11.0 stable, just upgraded from 10.20-staging. Issue was present
there too, though curiously it affected the configurator in 10.20, though it
does not seem to affect the configurator in 11-stable.

I will note that the underlying application seems to recognize that the cursor
is hovering over it, and in the correct place; the editor displays the 16-bit
index of the tile the cursor is currently hovered over below the left window.
But clicking within the window does nothing. If I launch via terminal no errors
are reported.
