<div>
<pre>When using 3.22.12 with GDK_BACKEND=wayland under Weston or Sway
compositors, for some reason windows/widgets are zoomed out when the
default size is bigger than the display at hand or even a random GTK3
file dialog somehow doesn't manage to snuggle into the physical
display size. This results in blurred out GTK windows that are hard to
use. I tried and failed to manually resize the GTK3 window to be smaller
and not be zoomed out with blur.
I have been unsuccessfully looking for the right gsettings key that
disables zooming and ideally re-enables widget scaling.
I am _not_ talking about HiDPI but just plain resizable interface
scaling as available since the days of GTK1 and GTK2. The problem
is the opposite of HiDPI, meaning small display size not large display
with HiDPI. The window is tried to be crammed into the given display
size and when it doesn't fit the desired dimensions, widgets and all
of the interface is zoomed out with blur but not resized or at least
left at the unfitting and extending size.
Since I cannot find any information on how to configure this
behavior and there's been silence on the gtk list, I must
assume that this is a regression.</pre>
