Linux Wayland Support

Post by Zeioth »

As you probably know, Linux has moved from xorg to wayland. It would be important to support this new protocol in order to be a viable alternative.

For what I've tested, the QT versions needs to be updated to be compatible with HiDPI though.

i'm using the version 1.8.2 on linux with wayland and plasma 6.2.2, qt 6.7.2

But, the user interface is waaay too small,
the fonts in the tree-view on a 4K screen are barely readable
the only fonts i can configure are those of the main UI (view > info > font)

In previous versions, this wasn't a problem at all....?

Any help on this?
