Hello,
I am developing an application using Qt 5.3, and I have created most of the widgets using Qt Designer, which means, all widgets were designed with pixel accuracy.
All is fine and good in regular monitors, however, I have received a report from a user who has a high display monitor (2560x1440), in which the fonts are super large and all the layouts and buttons are pushed beyond their designed areas.
This is a screen shot of how the application looks in my 1920x1080 monitor:

And here is how it looks in a the 2560x1440 monitor:

My questions are:
- Why are the fonts so large? Is there a way to tell Qt to ignore the high dpi and use the fonts shown normally at 96 dpi?
- Is there a way to simulate this issue in my PC so that I can properly test and fix it?
- Is it possible to design the widgets in Qt Designer using a font size relative value?
Thank you!
