That's fine. I mainly mentioned it in regard to Jon's baby-with-the-bathwater recommendation of turning off highdpi entirely. Turning it off entirely should only be necessary if one was in the habit of turning off highdpi in previous Qt5 versions of Calibre. If you turned it on (or if Calibre's "auto" preference decided highdpi should be used) the correct environment variable setting to emulate that behavior in Qt6 is: QT_SCALE_FACTOR_ROUNDING_POLICY = Round.

I myself, am having good luck with a value of "RoundPreferFloor" for QT_SCALE_FACTOR_ROUNDING_POLICY on a laptop using a 125% scale.

Really? Such extremism is so out character for him. I'm SHOCKED, SHOCKED I say

Perhaps Uncle Robin and Sirtel could disclose their display scaling setting, that might go some way to disproving my fractional scaling theory.

Mine is 300%. High DPI has always been set on automatic.

Don't think there are any incomplete conversations.

I'll leave it stuck for a while so it can be found easily.

Please post new issues to a new thread.
