Could you describe it in more details? My main computer for hobby tasks is a laptop with 15.6" FullHD IPS screen. Its native resolution is 1920x1080, so DPI should be about 141.21. When I have bought this laptop I have tested screen scaling and other available settings... Unfortunately, all of them have looked ugly and were absolutely unusable. The most convenient configuration I have found (and am using now): scale factor 1 + font size 10pt + DPI 116. Also I would be grateful for any info if anything have been improved in 2017 and you have recommendations which settings should be convenient for my monitor now. Best wishes, Boris

Hi Lisandro, I can't try it (not have any HiDPI monitor to test this, too ! and we have the same problem with QElectroTech). But why not push Qt 5.10.1 now to unstable? Regards, Laurent
Need help testing qtbase with HiDPI monitors
Hi everyone! I would really *love* if some of you could help me with a HiDPI issue we are tracking. Currently qtbase 5.9.1-11 added a patch that should improve HiDPI usage for most use cases. I would like to know if it caused or not a regression for any of you. VLC seems the right app to test with. It would also be really cool if you find that it breaks stuff if starting vlc with QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 env variable set does anything for you. Long story: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=884956 Thanks in advance! -- Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer http://perezmeyer.com.ar/ http://perezmeyer.blogspot.com/
