Rendering Pages

[hstoellinger]

Hello,
At present I run Vivaldi (both Snapshot 6.2.3070.3 and Stable 6.1.3035.111) on Kubuntu 22.04. Something with regard to rendering must have been changed in 6.1.3035.111. "Things" get displayed in bigger panels using bigger fonts. Everything is fine under 6.1.3035.111. Can I change some setting to correct this weird new behaviour?

@hstoellinger Can you please create two screenshots, so i can see what you mean.

[hstoellinger]

Thanks for the immediate answer. Before creating any screenshots -- Under the Stable version everything displays fine with UI Zoom set at 100%, while, in the Snapshot I have to set UI Zoom at something like 80% for things behaving "correctly". I wonder whether this helps you already?
Regards from Salzburg

@hstoellinger I checked Mail panel, bookmark panel, and some web panels with same widths, no difference in font size on my Debian 12 KDE.
As i have no Kubuntu for a test, i can not tell what is different.

//EDIT2: I remember now that some font changes in 6.2 Snapshot were done.

Just inspect UI.
Inspect UI? How?
Open chrome://flags/#debug-packed-apps
Select Enabled
Restart
Now you can use context menu to inspect UI with Developer Tools window's tab Elements → Computed.

//EDIT: I inspected 6.2 Snapshot History panel and it has these font settings:
font-family Cantarell, "Noto Sans", Helvetica, system-ui, sans-serif
font-size 13px
font-weight 400
height 24px
line-height 24px

if i scroll down in devtools computed tab in section Rendered Fonts, i see my Debian has selected Noto Sans.

6.1 Stable:
font-family Ubuntu, system-ui, sans-serif
font-size 13px
font-weight 400
height 24px
line-height 24px

@hstoellinger and the screenshot for 6.2...

[DoctorG]

I can see no difference in your screenshots.

[hstoellinger]

SorrY! Correct! These were both from 6.2. I am hopefully sending you a screenshot under 6.1 now...
