>From the documentation, it seems that FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD is considered a variant of FT_RENDER_MODE_LIGHT: https://www.freetype.org/freetype2/docs/reference/ft2-base_interface.html#ft_load_target_xxx
But it seems that when autofitter checks whether stem darkening should be available, it strictly requires FT_RENDER_MODE_LIGHT, not FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD. (src/autofit/afloader.c:380) Is this behavior intended? I'm also wondering if this is why I can't enable stem darkening in my JetBrains IDE even with FREETYPE_PROPERTIES=autofitter:no-stem-darkening=0 set. FYI, gamma correct rendering can be configured for JetBrains IDE with a specific set of options: * -Dsun.java2d.xrender=false * Use subpixel antialiasing in the options * Change "lcd.contrast.value" from the "Registry" action for stronger gamma correction (default is gamma 1.4) Tatsuyuki
