Certain UI components do not properly respect system text anti-aliasing hints
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIVOT-393
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-393
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.4
Reporter: Greg Brown
Fix For: 1.4.1
Some components render text using the drawString() method of Graphics2D and
properly set the text rendering hints using the getTextAntialiasingHint()
method in the Platform class. However, other components use a glyph vector that
does not currently respect the text rendering hints. These components should be
updated to use a FontRenderContext containing the correct text rendering hints:
http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/awt/font/FontRenderContext.html#FontRenderContext(java.awt.geom.AffineTransform,%20java.lang.Object,%20java.lang.Object)
Also, there is a minor issue with the use of getTextAntialiasingHint(): the AWT
"awt.font.desktophints" property may contain multiple hints (e.g. on my desktop
it also defines KEY_TEXT_LCD_CONTRAST) and Pivot is only looking at
KEY_TEXT_ANTIALIASING. Additional methods should be added to support the other
values.
