How to improve fonts in designer ?

**probine** · 12th October 2006, 09:37

I have installed Qt 4.2.0.

When I want to use "designer", then the fonts it uses in Mandriva Linux are not the fonts the rest of the system is using.

How do I solve this issue ?

Does it work correctly with other Qt4.2 applications? I am facing a simmilar issue with Mandriva and Qt4.2. I've talked to Trolltech support about it but we didn't come to any solution. It would be nice to know that I'm not the only one facing this problem. Could you check if it works correctly when run from the root account?

Ok, I found a solution, or rather a workaround. Don't ask me why, but seems that Qt4.2 just happens to be vulnerable to activating /etc/fonts/conf.d/02-mdk-disable-antialias.conf which disables antialiasing. It shouldn't happen but...
