[Interest] Qt5 font size issue with fontconfig

Ok Thanks for your mail. Forgot to mention that Qt UI is based on
QWidgets(QPainter) with unicodes.

Is this the reason why auto scale attribute doesn't works and need to use
QFontmetrics to set point size for the DPI accordingly?

Best Regards,
Ramakanth
