The PluginDescWidget doesn't use calls to pointSize anymore. Also the name of the plugin is only painted bold when hovered over with the mouse. The animation speed was increased a bit as well. Hope it is not too fast for displays with smaller resolutions. The problem with the current implementation is that it increases the height by incremental steps of 1 pixel (triggered by a QTimer) which gives a slower speed on high DPI displays. In the future this implementation might be improved, e.g. by using the animation classes provided by Qt. The SideBarWidget also does not use calls to pointSize anymore. Instead the standard font is increased by 2 (typographical) points and then rendered at the right place using information from QFontMetrics. In the long run the header of the SideBarWidget should be organized using a layout, e.g. a layout with one QLabel to render the icon and one QLabel to render the header text. This would ensure that the black background would always be large enough and that the fonts do not protude into the actual content.
