Hello and good day SC support. I tried to figure this one out yesterday, and really could not. I just found out yesterday about using OpenGL to enhance performance, and I tried it, the resulting performance boost to my charts was incredible!! But the fonts are not matching up... I will attach screenshots of before and after, hopefully someone can help me get this figured out, I would love to take advantage of my new Nvidia card. Here are 2 screenshots before Open GL. Fonts are set Globally, Calibri Regular Size 8. https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=170301747528.png https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1703017529340.png The next 2 screenshots are after turning OpenGL on. There is other things like the VPOC of the footprint not being aligned nicely over the volume bar for example, you can see the difference pre and post OpenGL. https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1703017790293.png https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1703017805647.png You can see the huge difference in the fonts here, they are similar because they are both Calibri 8 Regular, but it is definitely not the same... I was wondering if there was any insights into this. I spent hours yesterday changing sizes, trying anything and everything to get the fonts to match eachother turning OpenGL on and off again etc. I know this is minor but, I really appreciate your help!!! Thanks in advance for your time! |

What you are seeing is normal, as OpenGL does not have direct support for fonts.
