Smoothed icons with high dpi support in Qt app
-
I have enabled high dpi support in my Qt application using
QGuiApplication::setAttribute(Qt::AA_EnableHighDpiScaling);
but now my images don't look crisp, instead they look "smoothed" out. For example below there is a picture of some button that are meant to be using high dpi images. When I disable the high dpi support and manually scale the ui, using the same images the icons are crisp and clear.
I have tried to setQt::AA_UseHighDpiPixmaps
with no success.
Here is a sample code:import QtQuick 2.11 import QtQuick.Window 2.11 import QtQuick.Controls 2.2 Window { visible: true width: 640 height: 480 title: qsTr("Hello World") ToolButton{ anchors.centerIn: parent icon.source: "qrc:/ic_star_white_48dp.png" } }
The icon I am using is from Google material design icons and it is made for a high dpi screen device (resolution is 192x192). Enabling high dpi the icon in the toolbutton appears smoothed out. If I disable the high dpi support and set the height and width of the icon (
icon.height
andicon.width
) to640/160 * 48
(640
is the dpi of my device) the icon is crisp and clear. However, if I enable high dpi and set the height and width to48
, the icon is not crisp. -
Hi,
Did you already saw the related part of QIcon’s documentation ?
