Title: PJSR GroupBox title layout issue 1171 Win7
Post by: mschuster on 2015 August 13 14:39:13

Low priority PJSR layout issue: GroupBox title layout is off slightly in the vertical direction relative to the frame line. See pic of 1171 vs 1123 Win7. (QSS: Segoe UI 9pt low-res).

Also, with GroupBox margin 6, spacing 6, (same in 1123 and 1171) the vertical spacing between the frame line and the first item (Label, Edit in HSizer) has increased on Win7. (Not shown in pics). groupBox.sizer.addSpacing(-6) makes 1171 look like 1123.

Thanks,
Mike

Thank you for pointing this out. Version 1.8.4 uses the FreeType font rendering engine on all platforms, while 1.8.3 used MS's ClearType on Windows. This is probably the cause of this difference, but I'll have to investigate it.
