Bug ID: 54279 Summary: Wine 8.0x breaks window mode games on hidpi monitor Wayland Product: Wine Version: 8.0-rc3 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: i@xuzhao.net Distribution: ---
I play window mode games on Wine 7.x Wayland + HiDPI 4K monitor and it works fine. Although the window is bitmap upscaled, the window size is normal and I can still play the game.
After upgrading to Wine 8.x, on Wayland+HiDPI when I run the game in window mode, the window becomes very small and is unplay-able. It is also impossible to adjust the window size.
I noticed there are some changes on HiDPI+Wayland in Wine 8.x, is it possible to configure Wine 8.x to keep the old behavior? For example, is it because now Wine handles the application scaling, not Compositor? If so, how to revert the old behavior to let compositor handle the scaling?
