Screenshot showing the issue.

SUMMARY
When running with 150% screen scaling, the cursor has a 1 px white (it's probably not white, but "undefined" border on the right side.)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set scaling factor to 1.5 in System Settings
2. Open Konsole
3. Change to a different directory -- this seems to trigger it reliably

OBSERVED RESULT

Blinking cursor with a 1 pixel wide border on the right

EXPECTED RESULT

No white border

This is the issue -- notice the one pixel border on the right hand side of the block cursor.

The border is btw 1 *transparent* pixel wide, so you can see the window *below* through it. That it's white was just a coincidence. The same issue appears in the menu, the "black" line next to "Help" is in fact the same kind of 1 pixel transparent line.

I also noticed that this is font-dependent. With different fonts, I also get horizontal lines appearing; sometimes below links, sometimes across the full width. If I had to guess, I'd say some font metric is rounded (line height/width) and does not match the actual glyph size.

horizontal lines is a known bug, see bug 373232.
