Hi, for consistency, I am shipping my app with freetype on all platforms. This looks "correct", definitely better than using macOS or Win32's font rendering, but ! Qt's built-in freetype does not look as good than my Linux system's finely-tuned freetype configuration which prompted some investigation.
It's very visible for instance in the menu bar: * Top one is my system freetype, notice how the fonts are crispy and beautiful. * Below one is using Qt's -qt-freetype: notice how the straight lines, like for the "t" in settings or the vertical bars in H are blurry. [image: here.png] If you zoom you'll notice that the one below is missing sub-pixel AA: [image: here-small.png] Thus my question: is there a way (even if that implies rebuilding Qt) to pass configuration options to freetype ? Surely that must be possible as it's able to do the correct thing with my distro (arch btw)'s Qt / freetype / fontconfig combo. Kind regards, Jean-Michaël ------------------------------ Jean-Michaël Celerier *cto* ossia.io | *consulting inquiries* celtera.dev | *personal* jcelerier.name t: +336 81 31 53 08
