I can now see part of the problem more clearly. If you look at labels that contain the same letter multiple times like "Calculator" or "Security & Privacy", then it becomes apparent that the clarity of that same letter changes depending on where it is in the word.
Given that Qt caches individual glyphs (discovered in bug 1583088), this variation in clarity should never happen. Most likely the problem is Qt's text rendering is failing to place some glyphs at integer x locations, which is a big deal on regular low DPI displays. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1536751 Title: Font/text rendering is irregular and not pixel-aligned on low DPI screens To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1536751/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
