PokerTH

I've just played a game with the new 2.0 client. I noticed the following issues on Windows 10:

1. Audio often stops working for a while and then comes back.
2. When I busted out, the software immediately terminated, which is not like the old behaviour.
3. The fonts used appear to be slightly smaller than before. I prefer larger fonts.

Hi JeffHG,

* the sound issue seems to be on windows only - will try to fix it.
* can you explain more clear the busted out and the crash(?)
* the font sizing: this is an interim release. GUI will not be touched. I hope you can live with it until new GUI release hopefully in summer.

Thank you for testing and reporting issues!

I was able to re-produce. On it.

I use this thread to quickly report open-xdg missing method to open URL with Appimage client PTH 2.0 in Debian stable (Trixie) on LXQt 2.1.0 Desktop Environment.

I've discovered the following for those who want big fonts or just everything bigger in Windows 10.
Put the following in a .bat file:

@echo off
set QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.5
cd "C:\Program Files\PokerTH"
start pokerth_client.exe

You can try different values for QT_SCALE_FACTOR

Works for 1.1.2 too. Wish I'd known this sooner.

Just compiled all binary targets with QT dev 6.9.2+dfsg-3 on a Debian testing system (forky) and xdg-open on KDE Plasma 6.5.4 Wayland is ok (I opened my stats page url from PokerTH player menu).


May be I'll try to compile on Debian stable (trixie) with QT 6.8.2+dfsg-9+deb13u1

Could QT_SCALE_FACTOR not be a Settings option in the PokerTH 2.0 program?

I've noticed errors with the "Pot Box" and the "Flop Box." (link below)

As soon as the round ends (at least two players reveal their cards/end the round), the fonts shrink and temporarily move from their original positions.

I do not see a bug here after taking screenshots from every action from the video:

* bashFX is betting $5000
* Killa Harkan is raising with $10000
* bashFX calls the $5000 raise

Total and pot values are correct.

This is related to saving space for new 30% / 50% / 100% feature: the result is displayed a little bit different and interferes the position of the strings on the right side. That is uncritical and will not be fixed.
