Please pick on of the High-DPI bugs (see wiki features for overview)
and create a new followup bug with detailed description
and best: small unit test.
I hope to be able to go through these dpi issues before the release
or shortly thereafter.

But to understand each scenario best, a small unit test attached
or via git patch would help most.

Thank you
