Hello

No matter how much one preaches about the merits of anti-aliasing of
fonts and xft in GUI I'm afraid I just can't be convinced.  I must be
rid of this blurred text and GUI once and for all.

How can I turn off anti-aliasing in Evolution 1.4.4 and disable xft if
applicable and should this be done before building or afterwards?


This is the interesting variable :
 echo $GDK_USE_XFT
1


Set that to 0, and AA text is disabled. Its set in the /etc/env.d/50gtk2 variable for all users, or simply wrap evolution in a script, or alter
your personal login sessions to disable AA

Hello


I've changed the variable globally and as a result both Evolution fonts and GUI looks so much clearer and crisper!

Thanks everybody.
