    Description

      Why it is needed?
      In some cases when AA_EnableHighDpiScaling is enabled, Qt automatically changes the DPR scale for the window according to the screen DPR. The software developer is unable to set it on its own - independently from the Qt.

      Use cases:

      • override automatically set of DPR,
      • allow the application to behave the same way on all platforms,
      • allow to set the DPR manually avoiding automatic changes when resolution/screen changes,
      • avoid possible auto-dpr bugs,

      Usage proposal:

      auto w = new QWindow;
      ...
      w->setDevicePixelRatio(2.0);
      

      What happens:

      • AA_EnableHighDpiScaling is ignored for this window,
      • window is permanently set to DPR of 2.0,
