Hi Phil, > I think we should turn on Xrender by default in these early days in JDK 8 > > http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~prr/7077423/ >
I feared that day would come ... great :) I know of two more-than-minor bugs, however I haven't had the time to file reports: - Problems with SRC + alpha values when rendering to surfaces without alpha, this causes IntelliJ's editor to look garbled. - Somewhere coordinate overflows happen with very large JTables. I don't know if its ok to enable it anyway. I think the only problems may be in buggy drivers, but turning it on > will give us a chance to test and resolve remaining issues, if any :) > Currently shipping drivers are really all working very well, what could cause problems are probably archaic installations still running early versions of EXA or even XAA. Thanks, Clemens
