Yes, later. But read Bennetts mail in this thread. He says it works. At the cost of nasty font render problems. These were already discussed. It depends on the display font how bad the rendering is. The root cause may be that the text fragment passed to Qt string draw differs from the text fragment(s) used to calculate the screen position. Most affected are ligatures. Stephan
