Hello, on the new 1635 build italics text renders...differently. There are gaps on the ends which make it look like there are spaces. I find I prefer the previous rendering behaviour, is there an option somewhere to switch it back? I'm using:
VS 2005 SP1 on XP
VS's font is set to Segoe UI 10 pt
Thanks!

Using the same font, I am not seeing any gaps so far.
Can you post a code sample that reproduces the problem please? Can you also post a screen shot showing the problem you are seeing? |

When I switched from Vista to XP, I left the Vista fonts on here. |

I am confused, your post says you are running winXP. Can you please go to:
VA Options -> System Info -> Copy Info
and paste the details (from the clipboard) into your reply. This will give us the basic information about your setup. |

Thanks for the quick reply; I guess turning italics off will work for now.
I believe Segoe is the default system font in Vista. I had bad luck with Vista, but it's fonts looked very nice on my laptop. ;) Maybe the problem is due to it being a variable-width font? I know not a lot of people run VS with variable-width fonts, but I find it dramatically easier on the eyes.

Currently there are no options to control how italic text is drawn. You would have to turn off italic text entirely:
VA Options -> Advanced -> Fonts and Colors -> Stable symbols in Italic
where can I find this font to test it? I do not recognise it, and it is not listed on my test system. |
