The characters don't have correct widths, so it's almost impossible to select the text precisely.

Qt 6.6.0

I have spend two weekends trying to fix this without finding the cause. The
one thing I know is that the previous qt5 used a font hint odor size
whereas on the new one we don’t have that anymore
