Let me add that in case of tests it will most likely not even help to ship a common font with QGIS: on different platforms the text is rendered by different libraries (e.g. FreeType on linux, native backends on windows/mac). Also, renderer tests should IMHO have some tolerances instead a set of anomalies. For example, in multi-threading branch some tests started to fail because of some microscopic differences - this will require another set of reference images (and anomaly images) although there is no real difference. This looks like an interesting tool for comparing images: http://pdiff.sourceforge.net/ Regards Martin _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
