[Qt-interest] missing first character in labels

[Christopher Boger]

I'm having an intermittent problem that seems to be related to fonts.
I'm using Qt 4.5.2 on embedded linux. 

 

The problem is that sometimes the first character is missing from
on-screen text. The problem only shows up about half the time. Sometimes
when I start up the app, it's there. If I restart the app, it might
disappear. The reason I think it's related to a font problem is that the
problem will only show up once for every font/size/style combination. In
other words, if I use the same font/size/style throughout the app, I
only get one string in the whole app with a missing first character. If
I add another font/size/style combo, I get another missing character on
strings with that font configuration.

 

I tried using QFontDatabase.addApplicationFont, but this doesn't seem to
have an effect.

 

Any ideas out there? 

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Chris
