Antialiasing

[2beta]

On Pix 1.2.1 the anti-aliasing is really bad. The same image on gThumb (3.4.3) has no problem.

On Left : Pix
On Right : gThumb

Specialy on hair and sweatshirt

I'm not the only one with this issue

It is really problem.

The linked thread is gone, but looking at the URL it looks like they were talking about image export.

This is also a problem when viewing images in the viewer (e.g. double-click a thumb, etc). Scaling up and down produces results that look absolutely horrible. :(

It might be as simple as switching to bicubic or lanczos for the default scaling algorithm, assuming an external library is in use.

Please correct it…

Just giving a notice that jpeg images still don't look good in Pix version 2.2.1. At least on my system (Linux Mint 19.2) they look blurred compared to Xviewer. I'd say the difference is larger than subtle.

is there no antialiasing option in version 2.8.4 ??

Pix is now rebased on gthumb 3.12 so I'm closing this.
