PaulZ Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 (edited) In designtime (VB.NET) I create a label on a form with font Ms Sans Serif 14 points (not bold). In the designer the text looks good (nice and smooth), but when I run the form in debugmode (with F5) the text is not smoothed anymore. I tried other fonts, but they have the same problem. Does anyone know how this is caused and what to do about it? http://img130.exs.cx/img130/214/InfoGoed.jpg -> Correct (@designtime) http://img65.exs.cx/img65/1032/InfoFout.jpg -> False (@runtime) OS=XP Pro SP1 with .Net Framework 1.1, font-smoothing standard (not clear type) Thanks, Paul Edited November 19, 2004 by PaulZ Quote
PaulZ Posted November 23, 2004 Author Posted November 23, 2004 The problem is narrowed to a control from a external dll (Terroid Needle Gauge -> http://www.teroid.co.uk/index.html). When I remove it from my form, all labels are normal again. Quote
Administrators PlausiblyDamp Posted November 23, 2004 Administrators Posted November 23, 2004 (edited) The component might be changing the form's SmoothingMode or similar in it's paint event. You are probably best contacting the control's developer to see if this is a known issue.

PaulZ Posted November 23, 2004 Author Posted November 23, 2004 (edited) Thanks, I did this already and I am waiting for a response. Final solution: Removed an invalid Reference Path in 'Project properties', 'Common properties'. :D Edited November 23, 2004 by PaulZ Quote
