So i would like to be able to enable only simple antialias, without sub pixel hinting. The attached pictures show the difference.

The subpixel rendering is disabled on the system but the window title shows very nasty blue fringe. The menu text is correct, using only grayscale.

Since this will change RGB subpixel order, I changed from RGB to BGR in systemsettings. However, newly started applications did not pick up that change. Then I changed it back to RGB, and suddenly, newly started applications appeared in BGR! Changing back to BGR made them appear in RGB again. When I hit "Apply" without changing anything, then the "nothing changed" is still picked up, and applications start with the last set mode. So in total, it looks like there is some caching done inside fontconfig, which makes it respect settings delayed. It could be an upstream issue.

When settings are applied delayed, KWin as the first application that uses fonts might get different settings than all other applications started later. I remember there was a bug report, but cannot remember right now.

I've attached 4 screenshots of the bottom left corner of the screen: air_subpixel.png, air_grayscale.png, oxygen_subpixel.png, and oxygen_grayscale.png. There you can see an application launcher menu, a task manager and a part of a running application (Krusader). The application (text "F4 Edit") is always rendered correctly according to the subpixel settings. The menu does not depend on the settings - the application descriptions are always grayscale and everything else is subpixel-antialiased. The task manager antialiasing depends on the current theme - it's grayscale on Air and subpixel-antialiased on Oxygen.

After the assumption regarding an ARGB related bug, played a bit with ARGB test code. It looked as if the raster backend has difficulties with subpixel rendered texts. After changing Qt to the old native backend, all fonts were rendered correctly on my KDE desktop! - Do you have the new Qt raster backend enabled? - Can you please revert to the old native backend, for testing? My guess is all of this is related to the raster backend.

Some text (for example in the taskbar) is first rendered to an image to apply shadow and halo effects on it. Since with an image you do not know where it is displayed, and Qt cannot apply sub pixel hinting to text. This bug, however, is about a completely unrelated issue. The first application(s) that uses text (usually the Plasma Workspace or KWin) completely ignores font related settings from .fonts.conf file, such as anti aliasing settings or font sizes. As the title says, it is therefor even possible that those applications _have_ sub pixel hinting enabled, while it is disabled in System Settings. I still think it is an upstream bug, see comment #10.

The inside of the application windows seem to honor the setting.. But every thing else plasma-related seems to have sub-pixel enabled, even though I have it disabled, and it looks ugly.. For example, the title-bar texts, and any menu related to plasma, like if I right-click on the desktop background, or task bar or system tray icons etc.. Weirdly, I think this only started happening now that I switched to the open-source radeon driver.. I was using nvidia proprietary for a while, and then I switched to an ATI card and started using fglrx......And finally, today I switched to the open-source radeon driver, and I am almost completely positive that this issue didn't happen on non-free nvidia, or the fglrx, but only after I started using radeon driver.. Otherwise I would have looked this bug up before today because sub-pixel hinting is very obvious (and very ugly) to me..
