Thread: QML Window unable to set geometry when moving across screens

  1. #1

    Default QML Window unable to set geometry when moving across screens

    Hi all,

    I'm having some problem with my application where when I drag it from a HD monitor to a 4k monitor with 125% dpi scaling my application print error like:
    Qt Code:
    1. QWindowsWindow::setGeometry: Unable to set geometry 640x480+3210+774 on QQuickApplicationWindow_QML_0/''. Resulting geometry: 1280x960+3210+774 (frame: 0, 0, 0, 0, custom margin: 0, 0, 0, 0, minimum size: 0x0, maximum size: 16777215x16777215).
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Sometimes the window will resize to very large or very small sizes just by dragging it from one monitor to the other (OS Windows 10).

    EDIT: I forgot to say but I have on my application:
    Qt Code:
    1. QGuiApplication::setAttribute(Qt::AA_EnableHighDpiScaling);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
    Dpi scaling works fine until suddenly the problem happens after moving the window a couple of times back and forth.

    Please see below a snippet of my code:

    Qt Code:
    1. import QtQuick 2.10
    2. import QtQuick.Controls 2.3
