Fullscreen mode is not working properly with deployed .exe app

[hskoglund]

Hi, just guessing but it might be due to some differences in the graphics cards or their drivers. Do your 2 PCs have the same graphics card? If not, try to update the graphics drivers on the failing one...

@hskoglund
While the graphics cards are indeed different, I don't think this is the issue. I've run it in several PCs other than mine with the same problem. I suspect the fullscreen mode functionality but I'm not sure.

@CroCo Do you use layouts to position the widgets?

@CroCo ,

I thinks, you have missed to add imageformats dll's.

[CroCo]

@jsulm yes indeed. But I also set a grid layout on the background so that the contents will not be destroyed in case resizing the window. The code works perfect but the deployed app is not working. See the update for the actual form.

@Vinod-Kuntoji what do you mean?

[Vinod Kuntoji]

@CroCo ,
In non Qt systems, If you want to run your project, you should provide required imageformats dlls.

@Vinod-Kuntoji interesting. Can you provide more info regarding which dlls I need to ship the deployed app with and where can I find them? Also, is there any option(s) to tell the qmake to add these dlls in case building standalone apps? Thank you.

@CroCo

Copy the imageformats folder and put it in your executable folder.
C:\Qt\Qt5.7.0\5.7\msvc2013_64\plugins\imageformats

@Vinod-Kuntoji I've placed all the dlls but no luck. I'm using .png format though.
