Hmmm - this seems odd. I know I saw some differences early on, but I discovered that they were due to the changes to the fltk default build settings (1.1 defaults to Xlib, 1.3 defaults to XFT) and that altered the font rendering a fair bit. When I switched to using --enable-xft for all builds, the font appearance seemed to be the same for code built with 1.1 and with 1.3. But I have not actually checked recently, so there may be something... -- Ian _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
