Re: Is it just me? IDE seems to be struggling with DPI problems

I have experienced similar issues on a 4K display with 200 % scaling. On one linux distro gambas looks crisp only if I start it with qt5 and another one looks crisp only if I start it with qt6.

Unfortunately the time frame is several months...
