[Development] [Announce] Qt for Python 6.0.1 released

[List for announcements regarding Qt releases and development]

Dear Community,

Qt for Python 6.0.1 is out!
As always you can get it through: pip install pyside6
or update it with a: pip install -U pyside6

You can read the changelog here:
https://code.qt.io/cgit/pyside/pyside-setup.git/tree/dist/changes-6.0.1?h=6.0

It took us a day longer, since we had some issues
in our CI, but at least they are solved now :)

Even though this is a bug-fix release, we wanted
to address something that we were missing in 6.0.0,
the lack of Qt3D support and some plugins,
particularly imageformats, so now they are included
in the latest release.

We need your opinion!

We are trying to gather feedback from the '__feature__'
option we included from 5.15 and kept for 6.0
https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-for-python-6-released

If you have an idea to improve or complement the current
'snake_case' and 'true_property' options, let us know!
We would really like to keep adding more features on top
of PySide and Shiboken, to be much more than just
'Python bindings for Qt'.

Have a nice weekend!

Cheers

Subject: [Development] Nominating Jarkko Koivikko as an approver

Hi.

I would like to nominate Jarkko Koivikko as an approver for the Qt Project.

Jarkko has been contributing to the Qt project since mid-2014, having 
practically written the entirety of the Qt Virtual Keyboard module. His 
knowledge in this area is second to none, and would be a great asset in 
ensuring the quality of commits and moving the module forward in general.

Here is the list of his changes on Gerrit:

Cheers.

[Development] Confused about HiDPI scaling and fonts

[Thomas Laguzzi]

Hello,

I'm trying to enable QT_ENABLE_HIGHDPI_SCALING=1  in a windows application.
It seems to work good in a multi-screen application even with different DPI
settings, but it only resizes the widgets.
The fonts always remain the same size (100% scaling).
Is there a way to use QT_ENABLE_HIGHDPI_SCALING and automatic font resize?
If I have to do manually, how to detect screen changes?

If I use QT_SCALE_FACTOR  it resizes correctly both the widgets and fonts,
but once the application is started it cannot be changed anymore.

I use something like:

 qputenv("QT_ENABLE_HIGHDPI_SCALING","1");

  QApplication::setAttribute(Qt::AA_EnableHighDpiScaling);

QGuiApplication::setHighDpiScaleFactorRoundingPolicy(Qt::HighDpiScaleFactorRoundingPolicy::PassThrough);

QApplication a(argc, argv);

MainWindow w;

w.show();

thanks for any hint!

Thomas
