Odd and inconsistent UI scaling

[K4rakara]

The interface is scaled in a rather hard to describe matter (see picture 1) -- Its as if it's trying to scale for the full screen even though its not being given that. Oddly enough, it sometimes works when the window is in floating mode (see picture 2).

Install info

• Distro: Arch
• Desktop Environment: None (BSPWM + X11)
• Installation method: 2-photoshopSetupCustom.sh
• gpu: AMD Radeon RX570
• display server: X11

+1 to this, I have a very similar issue where it won't work properly. The screenshots and floating behaviour is almost identical.

Info:

• Distro: Arch
• Kernel: 5.8.11
• WM: bspwm
• Window Server: X11
• GPU: Nvidia GTX1080

If the author never gets around to this, then the semi-solution I found was setting the photoshop window to floating mode in my bspwmrc:

bspc rule -a Wine:photoshop.exe state=floating

On i3 scaling is messed up in the same way except the "floating mode" workaround does not work either...

+1 to this as well! Screenshots and description are exactly what I'm seeing on my machine. Would be happy to look into this myself if someone lmk where to start looking.

I think this is an issue with wine on i3 though and not an issue with this (wonderful) repo.

My setup

• Distro: Ubuntu
• Kernel: 4.15.0
• WM: i3
• Window Server: X11
• GPU: integrated i9

Floating mode in i3 makes this a bit better, but typically I have to do something to get the window to redraw after it get's all wonky.

Another workaround I found is to set a static size on an emulated desktop. To set that up:

• run ./setup.sh
• choose option 4 (wine cfg)
• click the "graphics" tab
• check "emulate a virtual desktop"
• pick a size that works for your setup

Its not a bug, photoshop window is thinking that is fullscreen, and its croped, all you need to fix this just make phtotshop fullscreen in your wm and to press restore button in photoshop window.
