[Qt-interest] How can I use QFontMetrics to measure strings which contains non-ASCII characters?

[Willem Liu]

Hi Kermit,

Do you mean that when it's painted on screen that the length of those 
Strings are the same, but the QFontMetrics return different values for 
both of the Strings?
I assume you use the same font with exactly the same font settings for 
both Strings. Then I can only think of one more thing which is highly 
unlikely, but can it be that the font isn't monospaced/non-proportional?
