There are still cases where the text is blurry during rendering, due to subpixel anti-aliasing. Setting the
{alpha: false}
flag helps in this case, but has the downside that we can no longer have a transparent background.This is some experimentation around rendering improvements, if we deprecate the background.
This also opens up the ability to cache words / letters as images, and use
context.drawImage
as opposed todrawText
for frequently used tokens, which could potentially speed up rendering later. That strategy isn't feasible currently, because the text is blurry.
