Currently, in Gwenview (which uses kImageAnnotator), when using the annotate feature on devices with Display Scaling enabled, the resulting image gets rescaled as well; e.g. if one starts annotating a 10x10 image on a 125%-scaled monitor, they would get a 20x20 image after annotating: KDE bug 485066
I considered changing the pixel ratio of the image coming from Gwenview in https://github.com/KDE/gwenview/blob/fa8a60a7988504feafe78c4d39c2ad362b31ad56/lib/annotate/annotatedialog.cpp#L53 to match the device pixel ratio instead, however doing so ends up adding a border of white pixels around odd-sized images (e.g. 11x11 becomes 12x12), and also doubles annotation sizes (e.g. 3-width pencil tool ends up taking 4 pixels).
I also tested this change with
ksnip(with the xdg-portal based grabber), and it seemed to work fine as long as "scale generic wayland screenshots" is enabled.
