Upstream bug fixed in Qt 5.11.
Comment 2 Patrick Silva 2018-07-09 19:45:49 UTC
Are you sure Nate?
I use Qt 5.11.1 and the problem persists.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2018-07-11 13:33:43 UTC
Darn, you're right. I didn't see this because it only starts looking bad after restarting plasmashell. PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1 is no help.

Looks like we've got no option except to covert it to use controls from QtQuick 2.0 or PlasmaComponents.
Comment 4 Martin Flöser 2018-07-11 17:16:00 UTC
Nevertheless an upstream bug.
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2018-07-11 17:17:28 UTC
If it's an upstream bug, it's different from the one that I thought it was that was fixed in 5.11. Can you locate the bug?
