I run Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with the GNOME desktop. Within the last few days the top bar was suddenly smooshed (see image below). I am not sure how it happened and it occurs on all monitors. How do I fix it?

Top bar Ubuntu 20.04 smooshed

Notes:

  • I have an NVIDIA GPU
  • This is not an issue anywhere else on the desktop, just the top bar
  • It's a bug affetting some user that have Nvidia GPU. This is only one of the questions in Askubuntu for this issue: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1269090/ubuntu-20-04-interface-font-too-small-after-restart-even-with-high-scaling-fact/ – Lorenz Keel Aug 25 '20 at 04:29
  • It is also affecting other users like me, having an Intel Graphics card. Could you indicate what card you have? (add the info to your post, use "edit"). – vanadium Aug 25 '20 at 07:38

    Workaround available in that question. However, I expect developpers will correct this pretty soon. – vanadium Aug 25 '20 at 08:01
  • @vanadium thanks for the tips. I have a Nvidia GPU, but turns out they coincidentally implemented a fix overnight! – Brigadeiro Aug 25 '20 at 17:05
  • @vanadium funny, now the problem is back! – Brigadeiro Aug 25 '20 at 18:49
