Title:
Qt 5 uses grayscale instead of subpixel font antialiasing
Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Qt 5 applications like Qt Creator or the Ubuntu web browser
(webbrowser-app) use grayscale font antialiasing. GTK 3, GTK 2, and Qt
4 use subpixel antialiasing as expected, so fonts in Qt 5 look weird.
Attached screenshot shows an example of the problem.
