Issue with chat width on Wayland

Open o0nd7ots opened this issue 1 year ago • 9 comments

I am using a 1080 screen on a Wayland session on Plasma 5.27.8 When I use X11 by removing Wayland socket permission in Flatseal, chats are ok width wise - 950 pixels. When I run it GTKcord4 under wayland though, the width is like 180 pixels.

I prefer not to attach any screenshots since they contain my chats.

I have always used gtkcord4 on Wayland + GNOME and found no issues regarding this. Would it be possible to upload a censored screenshot? I cannot know what you're talking about otherwise.

Okay, here they go:

X11: censored_x11

Wayland: censored_wayland

Also (on wayland) the width is not constant. Here I sent a sticker in another client and the width changed: censored_wayland_alt

I think it is obvious by now but I feel that I should say that I got the app from flathub.

Looks like this for me on Arch too I never ran it on X11 and thought that's the way it was designed :eyes:

That's strange, I'm not running into this issue at all. What versions of libadwaita is gtkcord4 using, and does downgrading libadwaita fix that?

Also, can you check again with the latest pre-release?

This is built from source on Arch. gtkcord4: r274.b5cc15e libadwaita: 1.4.0

This looks correct to me.

The original screenshot shows that the scrollbar is not on the screen edge. Could this mean that it's still a really old version of gtkcord4?

That is not what the X11 screenshot looks like. There is so much empty space around the chat.

Not sure about the version, but the latest on flathub is v0.0.12.

@diamondburned I am running latest flathub version, v0.0.12.

I noticed that when someone sends something long, like an image ora a sticker, the width increases. However for new text chats the width is that of the second original screenshot - unusable.

Update: I updated the app to 0.0.14 and the issue is still there
