Issue 915: www.pellemolle.com emboss effect not rendered properly http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=915
Comment #3 by tfreixas: In reply to comment #1 by scottmcarthur: I completely disagree with your assessment that the IE7 rendering is much worse than that output by Chrome. Without knowing what tool and on what monitor you viewed the sample, it would be difficult for me to determine how you came up with your opinion. But let's consider the policy for reporting rendering problems. The policy is to compare Chrome rendering to Safari, not IE7. The two render quite differently. This is the basis of the bug report. Google may decide to fix or not fix the rendering difference, but let's not get side-tracked over implementation choices. I chose a Javascript implementation because the client I wrote the Web site for may alter the navigation in the future. By creating an emboss effect with Javascript my client does not need to know how to create text using images. The navigation changes are much faster and the navigation needs less bandwidth than if images were used. Why use an emboss effect at all? It makes the text pop out just a little bit more than not having it. Whether this is important or not is something that is not relevant to the bug report and certainly not something I want to spend time justifying. I'm happy with the rendering of all the browsers I listed. I'm not really much concerned about Chrome as I doubt any of the store's target audience will be using it. If Chrome becomes more widely used, I will probably just turn off the emboss effect for it. I'm guessing that the problem is with the anti-aliasing algorithm built into Chrome and I thought I would give Google a heads-up about the problem, as I know I am not the only one using this trick (I got the embossing idea from another site). -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
