QPainter font antialiasing BUGGY

rileo8

Hi,

I'm using QPAinter drawText to paint a text using a font.
The problem is thata antialiasing is not working so the text is ugly to see.
Here is the code:

@ QPainter customPainter(this);
QPen pen( QColor(0, 0, 0));
pen.setWidth( 0 );
customPainter.setPen( pen );
customPainter.setBackground(QBrush(QColor(0, 0, 0)));
customPainter.setBrush(QBrush(QColor(0, 0, 0)));

customPainter.setRenderHint(QPainter::TextAntialiasing,true);

QFontDatabase database;
QFont font = database.font("Tw Cen MT", "Normal",40);
customPainter.setFont(font);

customPainter.drawText(0,0,300,50,Qt::AlignLeft,"Galileo");@

Antialiasing of paths works great while on font it is ugly..

I found that the problem seems to be in the Font antialiasing...it seems to be buggy on Qt (4.8) ..anyone had this issue?

Hi,

You should check the "bug report system":http://bugreports.qt-project.org to see whether it's something known. Also are you using the latest version of Qt 4.8 ?

Hi,

im using this version:

http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/4.8/4.8.5/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.5.zip.mirrorlist

I already checked on the bug report but seems there is no issue like my...so maybe I'm doing something wrong?

If you can come up with a minimal compilable example that reproduce this behavior then it might be a bug
