Zeal looks too small on Linux #1578
Comments
This may be a problem with the Qt appearance settings, and the LXAppearance application is intended to change GTK (formerly Gtk+) appearance settings, specifically targeting Gtk+2.0 and Gtk+3.0 versions. Most installations of the Zeal documentation browser on Linux systems are based on Qt, so changing Gtk+2.0/Gtk+3.0 settings may have no bearing on the Qt appearance and interface settings. |
I think this small interface should be fixed with Zeal v0.7 built against Qt 6. Alternatively, this is caused by misconfiguration of the Qt platform plugin, so Qt apps don't look native in your DE. |
Great news! Hope this fixes it. 🤞 |
@anmsh were you able to test Qt 6 based Zeal v0.7.x? |
The latest version as per my distro is 0.6+. I will try with the source install and report back. |
I did try the source install method and had some trouble with the install. Most likely something to do with having both Qt 5 and Qt 6. I need this sooner. So I will report back sooner. |
I can install the zeal version v0.7.2-dev.23+1067eae Qt5 version after installing the following three packages I will have to try with a fresh Qt6 install and report back. Edit: included zeal version |
Hello! Zeal looks too small on Linux. I can Ctrl+MouseWheelZoom on the docs, but rest of the app looks too small.
I am a long time Zeal user. This is the first time I tried it on a Linux. One of the things I tried is to use
lxappearance
and set the Default Font to bigger sizes. Other programs respond to this change, but not Zeal.Details:
Screenshot at font size 14 on lxappearance.
Screenshot at font size 18 on lxappearance.
Screenshot of a docset after manually zooming in. Notice the left list panel looking much smaller in comparison.
