FontQuality=4 bug

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

FontQuality=4 bug

Post by *darren1234 »

Win 10x64
TC 9.1x64
FontQuality=4 (AA mode). When the Main Window font is set to anything under 14 the AA does not work (is turned off). Even at 14 some font styles will render without AA in this mode. Try Arial regular at 14 which renders with AA. Then try Arial narrow at 14 (no AA).
UPDATE : also getting same problem with the Filelist font.

All TC does is set the fdwQuality parameter in the CreateFont function to the value you chose.

The documentation says:
ANTIALIASED_QUALITY
Font is antialiased, or smoothed, if the font supports it and the size of the font is not too small or too large.
So apparently there are some Windows restrictions in font size when using this option.
