Managed to find some weird behavior, I'm trying to figure out if it's because of compose or hyprland. When on Linux (wayland only), does anyone know where compose looks up the dpi to get the size of .dp and .sp units? I have 3 monitors, and only when on the center monitor, the application scales much larger, as though the center workspace only has a higher dpi. I noticed intellij also does this and was wondering why they're the only applications I've found that do this on linux. all 3 monitors are set to the same 1.25 dpi scaling. The app scaling updates just dragging the window between the monitors. If someone can tell me it's a compose thing, I'll open an issue

There’s a known issue with dp scaling of Compose on Linux.

kk, and just because I'm curious, does intellij use compose now for it's ui?

[Alexander Maryanovsky]

Some of the new parts are being written in Compose.

found the youtrack for it I think, would it help if I added details of this behavior here or do you guys have a handle on the problem?

[Wyatt Kennedy]

Looks like it skiko just needs to be fed the scaling from wayland if it's available or xrdb if it's just an x environment, would you guys accept a PR if I can grok it?

Can’t promise, but it is an area where we’re lacking expertise, so help would be appreciated.

also can't promise anything lol, that's a lot of finagling and testing. I'll work on this project for a bit and if I work it out in the interim, I'll at least post the workaround on the issue. ty sir
