Font rendering problems with QT applications in Xubuntu

Question

I am using Retrofit concept, I need to pass the list value to activity. Here I attached the code where I get the response from backend.

private void callCheckTopCourseDetails(String getId) {
    APIInterface apiInterface = APIClient.getClient().create(APIInterface.class);
    Call<Example> call2 = apiInterface.doGetWishlist(getId);
    call2.enqueue(new Callback<Example>() {
        @Override
        public void onResponse(Call<Example> call, Response<Example> response) {
            if (response.code() == RESPONSECODE_200 || response.code() == RESPONSECODE_201) {
                List<RatingsDetail> getRatingDetails = response.body().getAndroid().getRatingsDetails();
                List<CourseDetail> getCourseDetail = response.body().getAndroid().getCoursedetails();
            }
        }

        @Override
        public void onFailure(Call<Example> call, Throwable t) {
            Log.i("ttttttttt", "" + t);
            call.cancel();
        }
    });
}

Solution

You need to install qt4-qtconfig to be able to change qt applications style and fonts. I just set it to emulate the gtk engine. I never had issues at least in Gnome.

sudo apt-get install qt4-qtconfig

To enable this style, use:

Qt Configuration: choose "GTK+" under Appearance > GUI Style.
The command-line: edit the ~/.config/Trolltech.conf file by adding:

~/.config/Trolltech.conf
...
[Qt]
style=GTK+
...

I found solution for version 14.04, but it seem works on ubuntu 13.04 version too: askubuntu.com/questions/285862/…

What have you tried yourself to do this? Please review How do I ask a good question. Stack Overflow is not a coding service. You are expected to research your issue and make a good attempt to write the code yourself before posting. If you get stuck on something specific, come back and include a clear outline of the exact issue and a summary of what you tried.

Bundle bundle = new Bundle(); bundle.putString("RatingDetails", String.valueOf(getRatingDetails)); Intent intent = new Intent(context, CourseDetailActivity.class); intent.putExtras(bundle); intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK); context.startActivity(intent); i am tried like this

Do either of these fixes, installing qt4-config or editing Trolltech.conf, work with qt5 apps?

[tanius]

@DKBose For Qt5 applications, you would use qt5ct: install with sudo apt install qt5ct, start with QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct qt5ct.
