How to set font quality? "Set font quality (e.g. force antialiasing on/off)".
Where is this option? It's not in the settings...

Why not using the help and searching for Quality ?
Its explained there.
There are many TC options which are not in the GUI.

cross posting from >> viewtopic.php?p=456039#p456039



Copied the text also to here since the user continued here:

Default settings are not written to the ini, you have to add the config line yourself if in need for it.
Search the keyword in the help and read than from start of the page for the instructions.

If still unclear, ask again.

Read on in other thread >>> viewtopic.php?p=456039#p456039

Thanks for your answer. I already did that and nothing changed, that is why I need help. Maybe I should put it somewhere in particular in wincmd.ini?

On which section did you put the line in the wincmd.ini? (See Help "Settings in the file wincmd.ini")
Did you manipulate the right file? (See Help "Settings in the file wincmd.ini")
Did you read the help? There it is explained what and how to do. (See Help "Settings in the file wincmd.ini")
Did you restart TC? Maybe it's needed.

I put it before this:
FontSize=8
FontName=Microsoft Sans Serif
FontSizeWindow=9
FontNameWindow=Segoe UI
FontCharsetWindow=1
FontWeight=700
FontWeightWindow=400
FontNameDialog=Microsoft Sans Serif
maximized=0
I edited the wincmd.ini file which is located in c:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Roaming\GHISLER

Yes, I read the help.

Yes, I restarted TC.

Yes, I read the help.
But you missed that "Fontquality" belongs to the [Configuration] section:


TOTALCMD.CHM
Settings in the file wincmd.ini
[Configuration] General settings
Fontquality=0
Let the user set the font quality, e.g. to enabled antialiasing or ClearType even when it's disabled globally in Windows.
0:DEFAULT (as configured system-wide),
3:NONANTIALIASED,
4:ANTIALIASED,
5:CLEARTYPE,
6:CLEARTYPE_NATURAL

"FontSize=8", on the other hand, can be found in a Resolution-dependent data section like "[1024x768 (10x20)]"

See "Settings in the file wincmd.ini - Part 3"

Thank you very much, I overlooked the Configuration section, that fixed it.
