This makes may day; it actually makes my week! I can't believe the genius wine developers have implemented subpixel font anti-aliasing in 1.1.12! All the apps look 100 times better now! I have opened Word 2003 about 10 times today just to look at the new beautiful UI! I have waited for this ever since I started using wine (~ 2006). This is my personal wine day! Thank so much, wine developers and everyone here -- you are truly amazing!!! --hasi

You have to put the following code into a file and import it into the registry: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop] "FontSmoothing"="2" "FontSmoothingType"=dword:00000002 "FontSmoothingGamma"=dword:00000578 "FontSmoothingOrientation"=dword:00000001 ...hope this helps. --hasi
Why not setting this key as default? It would be nicer for everyone i think... 2009/1/6 hasi <wineforum-user at winehq.org>:> You have to put the following code into a file and import it into the registry: > > [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop] > "FontSmoothing"="2" > "FontSmoothingType"=dword:00000002 > "FontSmoothingGamma"=dword:00000578 > "FontSmoothingOrientation"=dword:00000001 > > > ...hope this helps. > --hasi > > > > > >
I think comment #4 in bug 16729 provides an explanation. It's simply not been updated yet: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16729 Best, --hasi
