after update steam client to version 1676680477 scaling being broken on pages (game library and chat)

last good version for me is 1675997500

An Off-topic question: How do you downgrade steam to the previous beta version?

Same issue on up-to-date Manjaro with updated Steam client and beta opt-in (NVIDIA proprietary driver). Can't read game titles in 4K without scaling and with Deck UI running at about 3fps it's very cumbersome to start a game.

Workarounds:

1. opting out of beta fixes the main window scaling (Deck UI is still a slideshow)
2. alt+enter starts a good-old Big Picture mode that works flawlessly (for now)

I just upgraded to 1676836260, and HiDPI scaling is indeed now broken.

Opting out of the beta participation fixes the problem, as expected.

Please add an automated regression test for HiDPI.

Chiming in to say I have the same issue. The window is fine, but the content within the viewport no longer scales properly. In addition, I have this issue that happens whenever I view a non-Library page:

It seems to resolve itself when I close the window and re-open from the system tray. However, when freshly started, the issue comes back.

I have this issue too, I don't need to close the window and re-open from the tray icon, changing the page to Library, then back to the previous one makes it render properly. This is much quicker than re-opening

In the version 1678845529 fixed scaling in library, but scaling still not working in "game properties" and "steam library folders"

Also scaling didn't work in windows "big picture configuration", "desktop configuration" and "guide button chord configuration"

[frikisama]

Is it just me, or does the newly enabled scaling look like actual high DPI rendering instead of simple 2x scaling? It looks very crisp now, where it was a bit blurry before, IIRC.

Thanks to whoever was involved! :)

@kisak-valve Is there a workaround? The game properties window is barely readable.

[Seegras]

For me, the scaling issue is fixed on the Library with 1679024366, but still present in the properties window.

I can confirm that for me the mentioned windows are also too small (not scaled to 2x size). I do not participate in the Beta.
