Desktop zoom activated automatically at boot / login under KDE
by PasBern from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6H25M)
Hello all,
this weekend our cat sat on keyboard of my OpenSUSE Leap 15.5 desktop machine running KDE under X.org.
She somehow managed to activate desktop / mouse zoom (I know this result from scrolling while holding down the ALT key), with a zoom level of something like 1000%, you can see the pixalated mouse pointer over the entire 21 inch screen. Whereas I can exit this mode with ALT+SHIFT+F12, this zoom is active again when starting the system or logging off and in again.
I couldn't find anything in my KDE settings to switch this automatic zoom off, nor was there something in my .xsession file.
I have created a second dummy user for testing of only my profile is affected and this user also experiences this issue, so the root cause seems to lie outside my HOME-directory.
I would be so glad for hints an how to switch off this annoying behavior.
Many thanks in advance
