EditorGadget - Colored Brackets?

[Marco2007]

Hi,

could someone please test this and look, if the brackets are shimmering red and blue?

Code: Select all

If OpenWindow(0, 0, 0, 200, 200, "")
  EditorGadget(0, 0, 0, 200, 200)
  For i=1 To 10
    AddGadgetItem(0, -1, ":58 [h:min:s]xxx")
  Next  
  
Repeat : Until WaitWindowEvent()=#PB_Event_CloseWindow
EndIf

thx

Yes I get the same result here. Just a hint of red on the opening brackets and blue on the closing ones. Same text to a listview does similar, I have no idea what the cause could be. Antialiasing on the gui font perhaps, dunno.

Same for me, maybe the resolution ?

Thanks for confirming, I noticed it in the Debugger-Output...
And my first thought was: "Ok, now it`s time to stop drinking...."

Just a hint of red on the opening brackets and blue on the closing ones.

If you're far enough away from the screen.
Look closer and it is the other way around.
Even closer (zoomed), you'll find the opening bracket is blue and has a red "shadow" and the closing one is red (brownish) with a blue shadow.
And the rest consists of red and blue equally (more or less):

I get only back/white (windows XP).

I believe the anti-aliasing being used is referred to as sub-pixel and it is designed for use on LCD displays where the distance between a pixel and it's horizontal neighbor depends on it's color (i.e. the pixels layout is RGBRGB or BGRBGR). The result of the color is to make the display appear sharper on an LCD.

Let's get one thing straight right now, it is never time to stop drinking! Such thoughts can only lead to trouble!

No "shimmering" here, just black on white; but then I don't have ClearType enabled, which is the cause.

No probs here with my Lenovo WinXP laptop

Thanks to everyone and Welcome back PB

I tried this too and had pure black and white.

I was at first thinking that it was from font smoothing and or Clear Type or could posibly be caused if you're running an LCD monitor at a non-native resolution, but:

1. I am running at a non-native resolution
2. I have font smoothing turned on
3. I have clear type turned off

GeForce GTX-275 with a Lenovo L220x.

So I have to agree with PB that Clear Type is the culprit.
