Setting the scaling to '2' solves this problem and additional screan tearing as well as bad res icon problems. But that is not a solution, as then, one has to decrease font size, which again may not be read by all application. But this means that this is probably a compositor issue, and not that of KMail. So I will shift it there. No, it is a QtWebEngine bug. Please report this issue directly to Qt developers via https://bugreports.qt.io/ *** Bug 372026 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 351816 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 368136 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 373081 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Btw, at least for me, this isn't an issue that affects just KMail. Other things like the terminal, and settings dialogs, and icon resolutions are all also bad. I am assuming these things don't use QtWebEngine. Do they? *** Bug 374206 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** It seems like the upstream bug is stalled due to lack of example. I know QT programming but not qtWebEngine, anybody with the knowledge that can reproduce an example for them? With Plasma 5.90 and KDE Frameworks 5.30.0 I don't have the issue anymore. Still on Plasma 5.8 but Frameworks updated to 5.30 and can corroborate this is not an issue anymore for me.k I still have the problem. I'm on Plasma 5.8 and Frameworks 5.30.0 Actually, I hasten to add that though the scaling has been "fixed," rendering is really poor, making it really hard to read. Does anyone else have this problem? I don't think it's an issue with the font per se because it's the only area of KMail that renders fonts this poorly. Screenshot here: http://imgur.com/a/VCKjM For me, at 1.5, font rendering is horrible in a lot of other places ass well; For example the screen that comes when you click logout/shutdown. Also, at a scaling of 2 (what is my current workaround - with reduced font size) okular has the same problem of grainy font rendering. I'm having to read pdfs in my browser. Today I got an KDE update and the issue is back. This might be a KDE issue and not Qt ... *** Bug 368571 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** FYI: It is not fixed with Qt 5.9 yet. I've opened https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-61502 *** Bug 381627 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
