Hi again,

Anyone have any idea about this? Didn't get a response last week:

Using the CVS version of VTK, my vtkTextActors are rendered very
fuzzy. The same code compiled with VTK 5.0 renders them crisply. Here
are two links to show the difference:

with v5.0:

with CVS:

Any idea why this is happening? Here is all my code:

vtkTextActor *TextActor = vtkTextActor::New();
TextActor->ScaledTextOff();
TextActor->SetDisplayPosition(5,5);
TextActor->SetInput("Hello there.");

vtkTextProperty *pTextProperty = TextActor->GetTextProperty();
pTextProperty->SetFontSize(14);
pTextProperty->SetColor(1,1,1);
pTextProperty->BoldOn();
pTextProperty->ShadowOn();
pTextProperty->SetFontFamily(VTK_ARIAL);

Thanks,

Mark
