Hello!
I almost bought Corel 2018 and then I thought - hey best to try trial first! I am glad I did.
other than being very slow,
I am puzzled about how the interface has this awful font, it is blurry and whatnot.
I have disabled cleartype in Windows because I hated it. I am of one of the group with eyes that will not work with Microsoft's cleartype. (I have too good color sight I guess and I have astigmatism) so cleartype give me headache and strained eyes.
Now, Corel 2018 seems to have some kind of strange effect with the fonts.
I have set the fonts in Windows (version 7) to use Tahoma which is friendly for my eyes.
But it looks like corel is ignoring system font. Boo! (disrespectful to people with special needs)
What can I do to get Corel to honor my choices set in Windows system and use fonts from that? And not try to make its own?
If this is not resolved I will stay with X8.
Picture show 2018 and Notepad. Note that Notepad honor Windows settings with the fonts and rendering (look at the menu item text on NotePad - Good there). But Corel2018 go its own way and you can see how awful it looks.
also please do not tell me to make font larger. I do not want to do that because it would make my workflow bad and it would steal much space.
I am still on Windows 7, but I am pretty much going with what my organization is using. When I get a new machine, or if I get a complete "refresh" of an existing machine, it will be Windows 10. I'm sure that I will like some aspects of it, and will find some parts of it very annoying.
I did use some of those techniques to get Tahoma in more places in Windows 7, as an experiment.
Self employed or hobbyist level. (both)
Just wondering, I found it hard to believe that a person employed by someone woud have so much time to dedicate to such endeavors.
Time to work out a good working environment for everyone? I hope so. If not, then it is a bad workplace.
If I understand you correct what you meant.
If you are indeed thinking of making better workplace for people with special needs. If it is so, then you are coming out being a little bit of abrasive.
But really this doesn't belong here in this forum?
