Image Worries #2
The 1.1b release of Mozilla does not exhibit the image problem I mentioned earlier, so maybe it is a 1.0 problem after all. Chimera is fine, too.
But here’s a new problem unrelated to images: both Mozilla 1.1 and Chimera take advantage of Quartz text rendering in OS X to anti-alias type. On 22-inch Cinema displays, this looks great. The problem is I don’t have a Cinema display. In Moz 1.1 there’s no way to turn this ‘feature’ off. Chimera used to allow you to do this – but the off switch has been removed! Grrr…
I could use the very wonderful TinkerTool to turn off anti-aliasing, but I would have to have it act on a type size that is used throughout the OS, thus making the system ugly (or even uglier than Aqua already is; don’t get me started).
I’m not really a whining, hard-to-please wanker. I’m just looking for a little control.
