BUG - Bad Text Display
« on: January 18, 2012, 09:12:29 pm »
Hi,

I have some trouble with displaying text with the SFML.



As you can see with the screenshot, the text isn't display properly. (But, sometimes, the same text is display properly ...)

I made some test with Mac OS X and Windows...

Any ideas why i have this trouble ?

Thanks for your help ;)

You're not the first one to report this problem, so I guess we can say that it's a known bug which needs to be fixed.

No. I have no clue about what's causing this bug.

Just to bump the issue: sometimes, with certain font size/text combinations I have similar artifacts - even with the default font:



For development this isn't much of an issue, but this wouldn't look good on a finished project ;)

BTW: I don't think Laurent is really using github's issues to track bug reports like these, or is he? Should I submit an issue there? ;)

And for the record:
I'm on an updated Linux Debian Squeeze x64, running on a core 2 quad processor and nVidia GeForce GTS 450 GPU. And using the latest SFML 2.0. I will gladly provide more info if needed.

Maybe you could wait until SFML 2.0 is released ;)
