It seems like it would behoove me to learn this GDI replacement, WPF. I dropped some controls on a new WPF project and started looking around. It’s obvious the playing field has changed again. If the past has taught me anything, I know I need to get this this thing under my belt (like it or not).
That being said, I’m not sure I can get my customers to swallow the fuzzy fonts. Some of them have trouble reading text on the screen as it is.
I found some mention of this on SO, but no real solutions I can duplicate:
WPF Blurry fonts issue- Solutions
Is it simply that the default font was poorly chosen? I’d rather not have to hack the registry on customer machines.
I was curious what other developers are doing to overcome this.
I’m using Visual Studio 2008 SP1.
Thanks in advance
Is waiting until VS2010/.NET 4.0 ships (March 2010) a solution for you? If you’re only starting to look at WPF now, I wouldn’t have thought you’d be shipping a significant app before March. Of course, whether your customers will be willing to upgrade to .NET 4.0 is a different question.
