@Xelis
Thank you firstly for pursuing this.
I note your comment here https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-23372
referring to hintslight and quote, "it seems it uses bold font instead of
normal ones". While I agree with your description I found when using the
default Ubuntu font a couple peculiarities;
1. selecting either the medium or regular font weight made no apparent
difference.
2. changing the hinting from none to full also made no difference.
3. changing to other Ubuntu font weights eg bold did change as you would
expect. Hinting still appears wrong, but they did at least change.
