      Until now, only Cocoa has been doing this.

      QWindowSystemInterface::handleWindowScreenChanged()

      When you drag a window from one screen to another, you can see the screen properties change; try for example with qtdeclarative/examples/quick/window/ScreenInfo.qml. It's especially useful if the screens have different resolution, so maybe fonts, icons etc. need to be rendered with different quality. (so it was needed on Cocoa because an MBP with a retina display is often connected to a non-retina external monitor)

      https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,77263 adds it for X11 and https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,56574 for OSX. Hopefully all platforms will have it eventually.
