Summary | 0003673: HIDPI related bug where text doesn't fit grey box in "Documents" when the software starts. | ||||
Description | HIDPI is more and more used with > 1080p monitors like 4K. It basically downscales the resolution without actually lowering the monitor resolution. It results in crisper image without the tinyzation of everything on a small but high resolution monitor. Best explained here: https://support.system76.com/articles/hidpi-multi-monitor/ QT5 actually supports HIDPI quite well and it will make FreeCAD usable on workstations using HIDPI (at last!) :) The problem(s) that remain(s) (Maybe I'll find more later) is in the Start page "Document" tab. Each thumbnail is in a gray box with text underneath. The text doesn't fit in the grey box so it makes the welcome to FreeCAD exeperience a bit frightening. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Use hidpi with a 4K monitor. For me it's easy to do with POP!_OS which derivates from Ubuntu. You just go in gnome settings->Peripherals->Monitors, Enable HIDPI and scale to 200%. I used the FreeCAD_pre AppImage. | ||||

Here's another screenshot showing effect of hidpi on preferences. |
|
This isn't only restricted to "documents". Here is a screenshot of my start page with a HiDPI scaling of 250% on V0.17 on Windows. Notice that not only the text doesn't fit in the boxes, but also the background is not stretched to fit the window |
|
A few more instances of places where text or images don't fit correctly with HiDPI scaling |
|
@gweb we aren't addressing 0.17 anymore. Please test on 0.19dev https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases/tag/0.19_pre |
|
Still lots of HiDPI bugs: https://www.freecadweb.org/tracker/search.php?tag_string=HiDPI |
