gdkxft: anti-aliased fonts for gtk+-1.2

5 Strange text window behavior - ID: 525416

Last Update: Comment added ( unleet )

Details:

In a text box, after typing a line all above lines get
very strange. It seems like antialiasing gets too 'hard',
all grey pixels also get black. Try for example
sylpheed and use an antialiased font for mail typing.

Then I discovered that it is simply a side effect of setting your font usinf pixels as the metric. Workaround: always use "points" as your font metric
