Font Antialiasing

[ViRomea]

Hello!
I read that there is an ability to do your font smoother with command
$env:QT_SCALE_FACTOR
but it doesn't work.
Are there another way to do font smooth????

Unfortunately, these are usually issues in the integration of Qt along with your font and OS.

Can you provide more details about your OS?

• Windows/Linux/Mac
• Specific Font
• Display Scaling (100% vs non-100%)
• How you installed nvim-qt
• nvim-qt version

The QT_SCALE_FACTOR setting changes your display scaling within Qt. These days, it usually is not necessary to modify it and it only helps in some limited scenarios on non-100% scaled displays.

There probably isn't much we can do here, as Qt controls these details of the font rendering...
