Hi,

I don't understand the issue. The Screen cannot display fractional
character positions anyway, so why would this make any difference?

There is a rather nice demo of how to do exactly that at:

<http://antigrain.com/research/font_rasterization/index.html>

which also has a nice discussion of the issues. I think I would vote for (long term) an overloaded version of TextOut et al which would take floating point values (or scaled values), but I suspect that would be hard work!

Is this only an issue for controls that paint every letter of a string individually, rather than painting the entire string at one go?
