Jagged QML font on N8

[SimonJudge]

QML Text items are displaying tagged (looks like non-anti aliased) on N8 but not on C7. I have tried changing the font.family from Helvetica to Arial but nothing changes.

What should the font.family be on Symbian^3? How can I display non-jagged chars on N8?

[I have looked into loading my own font but am avoiding that due to locking/uninstall problems reported by others - under 4.7.1]

Thanks

Simon

Hi Simon,

You can check the present fonts on the device using "QFontDatabase Class":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qfontdatabase.html and to select the most appropriate font family.

Best regards,

Thanks for trying to answer but this does not answer my question which was related to QML, not c++.

Thanks

Hi Simon, I'm using "FontLoader":http://doc.trolltech.com/4.7-snapshot/qml-fontloader.html on Symbian^3 with Qt 4.7.2 and works fine (I also had problems with FontLoader on Qt 4.7.1 and S^3) , and the text rendering in my C7 look great (check image below, using Droid Sans)
