Re: forcing text smoothing for static text controls

I have some static text controls that look bad when the "Turn off text smoothing for font sizes X and smaller." setting in the Appearance (on Panther) or General (on Jaguar) panel of System Preferences is set too high. Is there a way to force text smoothing to be used for these controls, regardless of the setting in System Preferences?

I don't think there is, but in Tiger we'll be forcing anti-aliasing on for system controls regardless of the font smoothing preference anyways (as AppKit already does, I believe). Text drawn by applications will still be drawn according to the system preference.
