[Interest] How to detect a HiDPI display with Qt?

[Jérôme Godbout]

You can also check the device pixel ratio for image “@2” alike:

qreal pixel_ratio = QGuiApplication::primaryScreen()->devicePixelRatio();
unsigned int image_scale_ratio = pixel_ratio / 1u;
QString m_image_scale = image_scale_ratio <= 1u ? "" : QString("@%1x").arg(image_scale_ratio);

This is what I do.

You can check the dpi of the screen:
QGuiApplication::primaryScreen()->logicalDotsPerInch();

You can then check if the dpi is above certain threshold to do thing differently. Normal desktop full HD screen dpi is around 96.

Subject: [Interest] How to detect a HiDPI display with Qt?

I'm not clear on how to detect if a display is HiDPI with Qt. I've tried QApplication.desktop()->screen()->devicePixelRatio() but even that returns 1 for a display that is 3840x2160.

Has anyone got hints on how to do this successfully?
