ClearType not used for all visible text in list widget #13662

Electron update? |
So it seems. @rblath Do you see the same behaviour in 1.5? |
@rblath and how about other trees like the explorer, does it look ok there? what about the editor? |
@bpasero here are a few more screenshots: |
@joaomoreno I don't have the zip of this version laying around anymore, but I am pretty sure the issue existed there as well. |
If this reproduces with electron then this should be reported to their repository https://github.com/electron/electron |
Sure, this is probably an electron problem at the core, but it also matters how electron is used to render the text. Why else would a headline or text field be rendered correctly but normal text is not? |
@rblath I am playing around with a newer version of Electron and was wondering if you could give this build a try that includes it to see if something has changed with this issue: https://az764295.vo.msecnd.net/insider/d47c8ba23ff35913052db316aaeef1bb92b0dd99/VSCode-win32-1.8.0-insider.zip Thanks |
@bpasero Hi Benjamin, I am still having the same issues as described before with the build you provided. Some texts are ClearType enabled and some are not. |
@rblath thanks, I wonder if this issue is now scoped to the terminal alone or do you see it in more places? |
It is also visible in the Explorer, Search, Git, Debug and Extensions view on the left side. The title is always correct but the content is not. The Code Editor however is always correct. |
Todays VS Code insider build comes with Electron 1.6.x, would be interesting to hear if this update solves this issue for anyone: http://code.visualstudio.com/Download#insiders |
@rblath I just checked our stable release and I am also not getting sub-pixel anti-aliasing for the tree and other parts, can you compare with stable? When I check back with 1.10, it seems we lost sub-pixel anti-aliasing already with the update to 1.11. Maybe related to our theming work, I have to check... |
@bpasero Actually the screenshot above is from the stable version 1.11.1. Somehow the link you gave me pointed to stable not insider. But anyway, I downloaded the insider version 1.12 and it shows the same behaviour: |
I looked into it and it seems our work on the theming has made it worse for people. Specifically 7db643a seems to have caused this by no longer setting a background on the workbench container. I am extracting #24532 to at least try to get back to our previous state. The list widget (+Joao) and terminal (+Daniel) is still an open issue. There may be more areas where we hit this issue. |
@joaomoreno looks like the list widget is also using Given that we use the list widget more and more (SCM, IntelliSense) it seems odd that we have fuzziness in those when the rest looks ok. |
Created #24599 |
@joaomoreno awesome ❤️ |
It's never worked in the terminal, tracked in #17827 |
