Hello together,
when switching from Qt5.2.1 to Qt5.3.2, I observed problems with certain fonts: a) The glyphs look different. They are shorter and a bit wider than before. b) When using point sizes between 37 and 48 (approximately), the glyphs get rendered significantly below the intended position. This does only apply if no scaling is used when painting. I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 with a NVidia graphics adapter. My test application is a Qt Widget application where some text gets rendered in a specialized widget using QPainter::drawText(QRectF, int, QString, QRectF*). I'm spcifying a rectangle based on the size reported by QFontMetricsF::boundingRect(QString) and disable clipping. There are at least two fonts affected: - "Impact" (i think it's from the "ttf-mscorefonts-installer" package) - "Liberation Sans Narrow" (assumably from the "fonts-liberation" package) Because the majority of the installed fonts render correctly, there must be something in the fonts that does not work. Perhaps some deviation from the standards. On the other hand, Qt5.2.1 renders these fonts as expected. So there must be some change in Qt, which is not fully backwards compatible. Does anybody know what's going wrong here?
