Olgir Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 So, yesterday I updated to recent beta build: 4.9.0.2900. Everything is cool, but fonts. Some letters on some sites are awfully anti-aliased. Inspecting this issue, I installed Google Chrome and saw the same issue there. My experiments with Chrome led me to chrome://flags, where I disabled DirectWrite. It solved the problem in Chrome - letters are readable again. The problem is I do not want to use Chrome, but it seems there is no way to disable DirectWrite in Maxthon! Any workarounds? Attached some samples with "broken" font anti-aliasing. It's in Russian, but you are able to see the difference, I assume. The first is with DirectWrite enabled (broken), the second one is with DirectWrite disabled (okay). Note letter "в"!

BugSir007 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Hi, Thanks for reaching out. I can see a little difference with letter B in your two images. Any link to test here on our side? We will do our best to find a solution to this problem. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olgir Posted February 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I encountered this problem on vk.com (Russian version). The font on the pictures is Tahoma 11px. As you may notice, some letters partially fade to grey. "в" - to almost white. Not capital B, but "в", the little one. I assume the difference is hard to notice to someone, who do not use cyrillic letters. The problem is with DirectWrite, not with Maxthon itself. Just wanted to find out if there is a way to disable it. Also, I can not sync with cloud. Loading circle just spinning infinitely. Downgraded to stable version for now.

The problem with cloud tab sync is known. We are working on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
