With WPF4 you can have non-blurry text by adding TextOptions.TextFormattingMode="Display" and TextOptions.TextRenderingMode="Aliased" to your xaml:
<Window
TextOptions.TextFormattingMode="Display"
TextOptions.TextRenderingMode="Aliased">
This works fine for me except for when I draw text with DrawingContext.DrawText like this:
void DrawText(DrawingContext dc)
{
FormattedText ft = new FormattedText("Hello World",
System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture,
System.Windows.FlowDirection.LeftToRight,
new Typeface(FontFamily, FontStyle, FontWeight, FontStretch),
FontSize,
brush);
dc.DrawText(ft, new Point(rect.Left, rect.Top));
}
How can I draw non-blurry text with FormattedText? ie I want TextOptions.TextFormattingMode="Display" and TextOptions.TextRenderingMode="Aliased" to be used.
