Yes, there were some changes in this area. Can you double check if it's happening also with the latest continuous build?

Version: 1.10.0-continuous
Build: 1-84bbb9e

behaves the same. Observe how wide the pixels are.

Pushed a fix, can you check if it fixes your issue? The pepile needs a couple of minutes to build.

Version: 1.10.0-continuous
Build: 1-d59af45

Doesn't seem to have made any difference, unfortunately.

Pushed a new fix, can you please test again?

I'm using the AUR git version, after update and reboot, changing screens still result in this.

• OS: Linux
• Distribution in case of Linux: Arch Linux 5.17.1-zen1-1-zen
• Window System: X11/KDE
• ksnip version: 1.9.2 (AUR: 1.10.0_r2626.g9f88107b-1)
• How did you install ksnip: AUR ksnip-git

Edit: In this case, I had only 1 monitor, enabled the second one and did the screenshot
Edit 2: Tried with the continuous AppImage, in that one this does not happen

@Sqbika I'm a bit confused by this version there ksnip version: 1.9.2 (AUR: 1.10.0_r2626.g9f88107b-1), the commit hash seems right but where does the 1.9.2 come from?

The application reports 1.9.2 whenever invoked with -v, with an empty build string

Yeah, the 1.9.2 is a finished version that is not changing any longer. The fix is in 1.10.0 which is still work in progress.

Okay, that was a very amateur oversight from me. And old ksnip version was lingering in /usr/local/bin, which overrode the ksnip-git version. After removing that and reinstalling the ksnip-git, now the 1.10.0 version is installed and issue is fixed too!
Thank you

Awesome! Let's wait for OP's feedback before closing this issue then.

Well that's interesting. I just tried
Version: 1.10.0-continuous
Build: 1-9f88107
.deb and the issue is still there??? I will try the appimage, see if it's any different.

That is then indeed interesting, I was able to reproduce it. The commit hash there seems correct, it's from the About dialog?

After double checking, the toggling of displays works, but changing the display resolution does not do the recalculation

Yes, this was about changing monitor count, didn't take into just switching resolution.
Can you switch resolution on X11 without logging out? Or was that only for scaling change?

Resolution change doesn't require logging out (I'm using ARandR for changing resolution), scaling requires logout on KDE

Ok, I'll have a look into it tonight to cover that case too.

Next round, give it a try again, the resolution change use case should be covered now.

I hadn't realised that there would be a subtle difference between switching monitors + dimensions and just switching dimensions, so my bug report and subsequent testing didn't account for this [in other words, I can't recall exactly which way I was testing this at any previous point].
Switching monitors and dimension, this is now working for me with
Version: 1.10.0-continuous
Build: 1-f604ee2
installed with .deb file.
It doesn't fix the case of just switching dimensions without switching monitors. I will test this now with the appimage just in case.

Appimage isn't any different.

For the ksnip-git package, the detections works for both resolution, orientation and toggling monitors

@troffasky How many monitors do you have? Any screen scaling? What is the monitor setup (left right, bottom, top)? Where do you change the resolution, on one, (left, right) or both?

Laptop + monitor. The monitor is 4K but the laptop cannot drive both the monitor and the builtin display simultaneously at higher resolutions, so I am only ever using one at a time.

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2560 x 1440, maximum 16384 x 16384
eDP-1 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI-1 connected primary 2560x1440+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 697mm x 392mm

"Global scale" is set to 100% so I guess that means there is no scaling.
When I am changing resolution, I am doing it on the external, going between 2560x1440 and 1920x1080. No rotation.

So basically you have a single monitor on which you change the resolution? Haven't tried that I think, I always changed it on my secondary. I'll try to reproduce later.

Next round, give it a try again, the resolution change use case should be covered now.

I've tested with version 1.10.0-continuous (build: 1-626c2c8) and this issue is fixed, thanks!

Sorry I didn't update this earlier, yes this is fixed for me.
