QPainter::drawText() draws distorted text in some combinations of font size and font stretch factor

ckagerer

Hey,

I have a problem with QPainters drawText() method. Which I think is a Bug in Qt.

If i run the following minimal demonstration application on my Ubuntu 12.04 the drawText() produces a deformed output how you can see on the following pictures.
The Problem can also be reproduced on a Fedora 19 machine. If I run the same Application on Windows the output is like expected (same font is installed/used).

The deformation only appears on some combinations (ranges?!?) of font-size and font-stretch-factor. In such cases the is alwas a warning in stderr when closing the programm, which says:
[warning] (thread/qmutex.cpp:194) - QMutex: destroying locked mutex

I could reproduce this behavieor with Qt 5.1 and 5.0.2 and with other fonts.

Is this a Bug in Qt and has anybody a workaround for this Problem?

Hi and welcome to devnet,

I indeed sounds like a bug, did you check the "bug report system":http://bugreports.qt-project.org/issues/ ?

If nothing has been reported yet you may consider creating a new bug report

Hey,

Thank you for your help.

I've checked the bug report system already. I couldn't find any Bug which distorted the text the same way like in may case.

The Bug which comes close mine best is QTBUG-13682. But with an other form of distortion.

Therefore I will create a new bug report during the day.

Don't forget to also post your new bug report here so other may follow
