    Hi,
    i don‘t know why but my Qt application looks ugly running on my MacBook Pro 2015.

    Fonts are very ugly and whole application looks like it is zoomed in ....
    alt text
    Any ideas?

        hi,

        I think you miss to activate HIGH DPI support in your info.plist ?

        <key>NSPrincipalClass</key>
        <string>NSApplication</string>
        <key>NSHighResolutionCapable</key>
        <string>True</string>
        

        Have look here
