Bug Description

My laptop has three display drivers: the official one of nVidia, the open source one for nVidia, and one for the Intel GPU.

When I switch driver from the official to any of the other two (and log off & on again for the change to take effect), some apps (including the most important WebStorm IDEA IDE by JetBrains) have tiny letters.

This is immediately fixed if I go to MATE Tweak, and set the HiDPI settings from "High" to something else (say, "Automatic") and back again to "High".

This is not a terrible problem for me now that I found the solution to it, however I believe other users might feel very frustrated as they don't know the solution.

Can it be fixed?
