Hmm, debugging a little in impress I think there might be a separate problem with VclProcessor2D::RenderTextSimpleOrDecoratedPortionPrimitive2D and the text positioning scaling done there before it even gets to the usual text rendering stuff so things are probably already gone wrong before it even gets as far as the underlying stuff touched under this bug. I think we need a new separate impress bug, my thinking is that we should pass the dx positions to vcl untouched and instead set up vcl to scale them rather than scale them in advance in drawinglayer, which would at least give vcl a chance to do something nice. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
