Poor font rendering with High DPI scaling

[codemonkeh]

Application Version
3.2.0

Platform
Windows 10 Pro x64

Qt
n/a

PyQt
n/a

Display Driver
nVidia GeForce 390.65

Other particulars

• Screen Resolution: 3840 x 2160
• Scaling: 150%

Steps to Reproduce

1. Adjust scaling to 150%
2. Open Cura
3. Open Preferences > Configure Cura

Actual Results
The text in the Print Setup and Preferences is sharp, however random characters in the preferences dialog are displayed in slightly different sizes / scaling. Further more they will 'dance', i.e. continually adjust, if you resize the dialog.

E.g. the Interface and Viewport behavior sub headings.

I do note that if you adjust to override the high DPI scaling to System or System (Enhanced), e.g.

then the text is correctly rendered, however it is slightly blurry (as i presume it is using bitmap scaling).

Expected results
The text should be sharp and scaled to a consistent size.

We are aware of some issues with fonts, such as #3277. We are trying to fix them in the next release. Thanks for the feedback.

Could you try: https://stack.mybacklog.info/s/LDltcUP2BXur7AZ ?

Sorry @Appesteijn, I am getting a Pagina niet gevonden for that link

@codemonkeh I think that's because @Appesteijn replaced it with an updated version. Try:

In another thread this seems to have fixed 100% of the cases, so should help, at least until this fix is included in an official release.

@ianpaschal / @Appesteijn This appears to be a macOS build, was there a windows build to test?

Apologies for the delay in my reply.

@codemonkeh do you still see font rendering issues in our latest 3.4 version? Can you try it out?
