It should look like this
I think the problem is relevant to #337231 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 337231 *** Are you sure? I skimmed through that bug report. Seems to me if these bugs are related then I would see a jagged preview even when no scaling is performed, i.e. when the image fits inside the digiKam preview space, yet that's not the case - when no scaling is performed the preview looks good. Yes, I think both phenomena (grainy preview & artificial patterns on image parts with regular repeating structures like e.g. brick walls) are related. I am encountering both on DK 4.2., when preview-full-size-of-image is set to true. This was not the case in DK 4.1 The only modification that could affect preview is support for Macbook's retina displays. Developer who proposed patch will wrap code for Mac OS, just wait.

Created attachment 88170 [details] Screenshot showing image preview I haven't noticed this before so it's possibly a new bug. digiKam 4.2.0 uses a low quality interpolation algorithm resulting in horrible previews.
