    I have developed a desktop application using Qt creator.
    I am working in Windows 10. Qt creator 4.9.0. Qt library 5.12.2.

    With default resolution and scaling (100%) ,widget alignments are good. If I change scale to 125, 150..% widgets alignments getting collapsed. Font size are getting increased. How to fix this issue.
    Thanks.

      Hi,

      Are you using layouts to manage your widget positions ?

        Hi SGaist,
        Are you mean the vertical/horizontal/grid/form layout?
        Yes. I'm using the grid layout to place widgets in some positions.

        For some widgets, I'm not using any layouts for its arrangements. Example,
        qt_1.JPG

        For some widgets, I'm using layouts foe its arrangements. Example,
        qt_2.JPG

        Widget's text size are getting increased when I change the window 10's Setting >> Display >> scale and layout >> 125%

        Collapsed outputs are like this,
        qt_3.JPG

        Thanks.

          You should use layouts for all your widgets.

            Hi aha_1980,
            I placed all my widgets in separate layout (vertical layout ). After I changed the scaling percentage, the same issue occurred. Widget's size remained same but font size of widgets increased. Should I need to do any additional setting with layouts?
            Thanks.

              Do you run it on a 2K screen?
