[Pydev-users] [Users] How to make fonts look anti-aliased?

Hello.
I've just installed Aptana 3, and set my default font to Arial, and now I see
that it's aliased.
My OS is windows 7 and it supports antialiasing.
How can I turn antialiasing on in Aptana 3?

Can you post a screenshot and post it somewhere so that I can see how it looks
there? (I think anti-aliasing won't make much difference for Arial -- a nice
font with anti-aliasing would be Consolas).

As for the actual anti-alias, windows itself controls it, so, it should be just
a matter of enabling it in the system (search for windows 7 / cleartype... i.e.:

dows7-AdjustClearTypeTextSettings.php )

Cheers,

Fabio

Thanks for your reply, Fabio.

I could use Consolas, but I better prefer Arial (just a matter of taste, i don't
like monospaces).
I'm not a newbie, so I know what "antialiasing is turned on in Windows" means.
And it works everywhere, except Eclipse-based apps ( = Java based apps).
I thought they've corrected it, but now I see that this bug is gonna be present
for years...
I'll go search for another web development IDE.

I forgot the screenshot: http://i53.tinypic.com/dcy792.png
And to be honest, in Chrome antialiasing doesn't work too... I didn't notice
that before.
I'll go Google it, or use FireFox instead.

I can't edit my comment, so here is the update.
In Chrome this is a bug and will be fixed:

Please try asking at the forums in eclipse.org (as that's really more on the
Eclipse side and not in the PyDev side, so, they may have a better answer).

Still, just to note, here (windows vista), when using arial, enabling and disabling
cleartype does work properly and the font aliasing does change as it should
(eclipse 3.7).

Cheers,

Fabio
