SpriteSequence disable smooth scaling

[KiNgFrUiT]

I am making a game and the artwork has a pixelated style.

I would like to use a SpriteSequence but cannot find a way to turn smooth scaling off, I want blocky images. Using the property Smooth:false doesnt do anything. I wish to avoid scaling all of my images x2 in photoshop as this wastes space.

I am able to achieve the desired look using AnimatedSprite but then the state machine functionality is missing.

My platform is Windows 7 64bit and my Qt version is 5.5 mingw

SpriteSequence {
    id: ss
    x: 200
    y: 200
    width: 32
    height: 32
    scale: 2
    interpolate: false
    goalSprite: ""
    smooth: false // valid but has no effect

    Sprite {
        name: "left"
        source: "unit.png"
        frameCount: 3
        frameWidth: 32
        frameHeight: 32
        frameRate: 20
        frameX: 0
        frameY: 0
        smooth: false // cannot be used here
    }

    // additional sprite states removed
}

AnimatedSprite {
    id: left
    x: 400
    y: 200
    source: "unit.png"
    frameHeight:32
    frameWidth:32
    running: true
    frameCount:3
    frameDuration: 20
    width:32
    height:32
    scale: 2
    smooth: false // works great
    frameX: 0
    frameY: 0
}

I'd like to bump this topic, it's been over 5 years and you'd think small sprites would be better respected and not blurry with the qt engine (as ya know, sprites came from the pixel era) , I've tried everything under the sun to get sprites that aren't blurry and it seems you have to basically use an AnimatedImage or your own sprite engine to make do.

I would have modified the sprites item or made my own copy but I couldn't find a copy of its source
