View Full Version : slanted QGraphicsItem text?

Hello,

one of my users has been experiencing a bizarre slanted font issue, where QGraphicsItem text is painted with an italics-looking angle of around 30 degrees. This is only the case for the view on the screen though; when a .png is painted to a new widget (and saved) the view is normal unslanted. He is running Ubuntu, but that doesn't appear to be the problem by itself, as other Ubuntu-users to not have this problem.

I have tried forcing non-italics just to be sure, even though the text is clearly only painted at an angle... that is, none of the flourishes of a typical italic font are rendered. Further, italics would show in the .png. I'm pretty much just staring at this one with a furrowed brow, and advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
