Display Scaling below 100% breaks VSCode on Wayland Desktop #683
Description
The issue I'm referring to is this: ValveSoftware/SteamOS#2351
But @SuzukiStumpy said this fixed the issue for him: microsoft/vscode#311247 (comment)
Adding the following to the command-line arguments for the application seems to have fixed the issue for me for now:
--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland --disable-features=WaylandFractionalScaleV1
So I'm wondering if this is something that could potentially be added by default through the Flatpak?

Looks like it's only
--disable-features=WaylandFractionalScaleV1that is actually needed.ShaunRoselt commentedon Jun 19, 2026
Very interesting. There's a few apps that actually need this to work properly below 100% display scaling.
Any chance we can get this into VSCode? At least temporarily until the issue is fixed upstream.
