similar issue from pdfcraft

small problem. the 100% scale outside of a DE, is 200% in reality. the label in the setting is not representative of the actual scale of the program.

    Thanks! The fix is up in #1142. The cause: Interface size was multiplied by the display scale the system reports, which can be 2× without a desktop environment. A chosen size is now absolute, as in PdfCraft and PhotoCraft, so "100%" really is 100%. The default, Auto, keeps the system's scale, and its label shows the size it draws at (e.g. "Auto (200%)"). So you can see what's happening and pick 100% to override it.
