Antialias in marks text - Works in V7 but not in V8

Post by marder » Thu Jan 29, 2009 11:54 am

Hi.

I used TeeChart V7 in combination with Delphi 2007 for quite a long time.

I installed V8 and now the text in the marks of my pie chart looks very grainy.
See:

I did not change anything in the options of the series or the marks.
I am using V8.04, which I think is the latest version.

Note: I did try using the new Anti-Alias tool, but this seams only to improve the series, not the marks.

Is this a known issue?
How can I fix this?

Thanks for your time!

Hi marder,

I've seen this problem both in v7 and v8 demo "All features/3DCanvas/AntiAlias". I've added it to the wish list to be revised for further releases.

On the other hand, you could use GDI+ to have a nice antialias in your text labels. You could take a look at the demo "All features/3DCanvas/GDI+ Plus Canvas".

Yes you are right, v8.04 is the latest version available for vcl.

Thanks for the tip with GDI+.
I will take a look at this example.

Best regards!
