Fedora 36 cannot bear 300% zoom in

hardware: thinkpad x1c 2015 with screen of 2560*1440
fedora 36 all updated
when choose the display zoom with 300%, it crushed, apps clashed, only few apps could be used
I tried it in vmware, it is all the same.

Very strange. I’m able to reproduce that as well. Using 300% scale will cause applications to crash. Only on 300% though - 100%, 200%, and 400% work fine.

This happens with gnome-shell 42.0 on Fedora 36. Not reproducible on Fedora 35/gnome-shell 41.6 It also doesn’t occur on openSUSE Tumbleweed/gnome-shell 42.1.

So I can’t tell if it’s a Fedora issue or a GNOME issue that was fixed in 42.1.

Maybe consider opening a bugzilla bug report.
