Description Jack Hill 2022-11-23 14:55:52 UTC
SUMMARY

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Kirigami gallery
2. Open Android's Settings app (leave Kirigami open in the background)
3. Open Display
4. Change either font or display size
5. Switch back to Kirigami gallery

OBSERVED RESULT
The screen is blank. There is only a header at the top saying "Kirigami Gallery" with the app icon.

EXPECTED RESULT
The app should still be functional.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Android 13

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Restarting the app fixes the issue

Also changing toggling the "Bold text" option causes apps to freeze. Toggling "High-contrast text" and changing "Font size" do not cause this issue.
Comment 2 Jack Hill 2024-03-28 14:45:19 UTC
Can no longer reproduce. FWIW apps don't seem to follow Android's text settings (font size, bold text, high-contrast text) but this is probably a Qt issue.
