Hello Thomas,

We understand the inconvenience the compatible text rendering (GDI+) can cause in certain scenarios. However, we are not able to find a working solution to handle all cases in the controls when switching the rendering engine. Please also note, that we have built the controls using the GDI+ rendering engine and this decision made when initially implementing our framework. Since this is how the GDI+ technology works there is no way for us to change this behavior and we will be declining the item. If it fits your scenario, please consider setting the UseCompatibleTextRendering to false when you disable the control.

Hello Thomas,

I understand that setting the UseCompatibleTextRendering property to true is not an option for you at the moment. The painting of the text is controlled by the GDI or GDI+ engine depending on the UseCompatibleTextRendering property. Setting the property to true will force GDI+ and setting it to false will force GDI. As we have no control over the GDI and GDI+ implementations, we are not able to provide a fix in our domain at the moment. If it will work in your actual project, you can consider setting the property to true before disabling the controls. When you enable them you can set back the property to false.
