All examples are using the Organization 3 default template. Your screen may look slightly different depending on the version and color scheme you have selected. as a sibling in the visual tree) and put the effects on that.NOTE: Screenshots were taken using Expression Web 3.0 with the default color scheme. The solution to this particular case was to not put stuff inside the border that has effects, but instead use a grid (or anything else that supports putting content on top of each other) and place a rectangle in the same cell as the text (i.e. It doesn't matter if text was inside other panels or directly under the border - any text block that is child of parent that has an Effect applied seems to be affected. The result was that all text inside that border was extremely blurry. I encountered a problem the other day when I used a border which had a DropShadowEffect applied. That should be enough rope for every designer. Most prominently, there are now (at least) three different kinds of text rendering: There is an article on the WPF Text Blog explaining the changes. WPF 4 will have improved support for influencing the rendering of fonts. Due to its popularity as web font, I tried Verdana too, but it has a nasty jump in weight between 14pt and 15pt which is very visible when animating the font size. Calibri works for me better than the standard Segoe UI. The best advice the Text Clarity article gave was increasing the font size and changing the font.
Playing around with these settings didn't really improve the underlying problem, but can help by reducing the color bleeding effect for sensitive users. Text contrast level: adjusts the width of glyph stems to make the font heavier.Pixel structure: how the color stripes in a display-pixel are arranged.ClearType level: amount of subpixel hinting.
Of special interest to me was the link to the MSDN article " ClearType Registry Settings", which explains the possible user-side adjustments in the registry: While I'm no fan of WPF's font rendering idiosyncrasies either, I can imagine the clamor if the animations would jump like they do in the Winforms cascade. WinForms on the lower left side, WPF on the top right side: The difference is obvious if one compares the classic "cascade" pattern. Pure ClearType on the other hand takes quite a bit of freedom with the font to push vertical stems into the next pixel. The problem boils down to WPF needing a linearly scaling font-renderer for smooth animations. There is a in-depth article about WPF Text rendering from one of the WPF Text Program Managers on : Text Clarity in WPF.
