Re: AntiAliasing problem in Panther

I was using SetAntiAliasedTextEnabled() API for antialiasing text in my

list popup etc...) was antialiased, but on Panther , this is not the case.
Is there a different API on Panther?

Arvinder, we'll need to see how you're using this function to explain why the controls in your application are rendering differently. You might want to write a bug with a copy of your application or sample code that triggers the problem.

There were various changes to the handling of the point size threshold for anti-aliased text on Panther. One change involved SetAntiAliasedTextEnabled and related QuickDraw functions that were incorrectly affecting how text was rendered in ATSUI (and therefore all the Carbon user interface elements). This is not supported on Panther. You might try using the QDSwapTextFlags API to draw QuickDraw text using the anti-aliasing from Quartz <http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1193.html>.
