Possible high DPI text crispness issue in 1.5?

Post by JTCGiants56 »

I use high DPI 4k in windows and i'm not sure if 1.5 is rendering text with high DPI support with the same crispness than 1.4 does. I didn't notice this in 1.5 until now so it's possible this was introduced in the last couple updates (I installed but didn't really use the last few builds).

See below - Top is 1.5.0.271a and bottom is 1.4.1.

Thank you for your post JTCGiants56,

It's a bug with the recent Everything 1.5 alpha.

Looks like Everything is rendering the result list text twice.
This is causing the text to look 'thicker'.

I am working on a fix..

Quick unrelated question since I don't want to spam the threads list - Would the "Content Created" property encompass the below "Media Created" attribute in the below video example? "Media Created" is not listed as an option within Properties.

The internal metadata name for "Media Created" in Windows is date encoded.

Everything just calls it Date Encoded.
I will consider renaming Date Encoded to Media Created to match Windows.

"Content Created" is used on documents. (it maps to System.Document.DateCreated)

Thank you, that's great. I think it might be easier for people if the Windows Properties name was used in all cases instead of the metadata name as such in this case there wasn't really a way for me to match the two and search the correct property in everything (unless of course you are aware of the internal metadata names).

Everything 1.5.0.1272a fixes an issue with rendering text.

Everything 1.5.0.1272a will now use the property name Media Created for System.Media.DateEncoded to match Windows.
