TeamViewer GUI broken with fractional scaling enabled on KDE

Hello,

On my 13" FullHD laptop I need to set screen element scaling to 1.5 to make it look good. One of the few (if not only) DEs which support it is KDE. It usually works fine, but TV's GUI is terribly broken. Here's a screenshot, at scaling 1.5 - scale 1 and 2 work fine (the black rectangles aren't there, that was just me blanking out personal info):

Should I report this somewhere else, or is writing here enough?

Regards

If you want to set the env var from the start menu entry edit the file
~ /.local/share/applications/com.teamviewer.TeamViewer.desktop
Modify this line:
Exec=/usr/bin/env QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS="1" /opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/script/teamviewer

This solves it.
QT_SCALE_FACTOR did not work for me.

This did:

QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS="1"; teamviewer

same issue here

i'm on KDE Plasma 5.14.5 (kubuntu 19.04) and need scaling because my laptop resolution is huge (dell xps 13)

workaround does not work for me

any other idea?

Same issue here, your solution makes Teamviewer usable again, kudos!

As development is sleeping, use the following workaround to start teamviewer:

QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS="1"; teamviewer

that way the gui works again, if you have great eyes.
Not thanks to teamviewer.

I have the same problem. Teamviewer is unusable because of this.
