Area(s) with issue?

FancyZones, FancyZones Editor

Steps to reproduce

1. Attach a 32 inch 4 k monitor
2. Go to display settings and extend this monitor and and put scaling to 100% for the 32 inch monitor
3. Go to fancy zones and create some zones for the 32 inch monitor
4. Detach the 32 inch monitor
5. Attach a 27 inch 4 monitor
6. Go to display settings and extend this monitor and and put scaling to 125% for the 27 inch monitor
7. Go to fancy zones: now you will notice that the zones do not fit your screen size anymore, but when you close the editor you will notice that the zones are still applied correctly

✔️ Expected Behavior

That you will be able to see the editor in the same way as the zones are applied,

❌ Actual Behavior

now I had to go back to 100% to edit the zones and then go back to 125%

Hi @jmeijering, could you confirm whether the 'Span zones across monitors' option is enabled?
/needinfo

[jmeijering]

Yes, that's enabled

[SeraphimaZykova]

Yes, that's enabled

Thank you for a quick reply. With this option enabled, FancyZones considers your monitors as one big rectangle. Currently, it doesn't consider scaling, monitor orientation, etc.

This is a known issue, I'll close this one as a duplicate against the earlier one. Thank you.
