0.84b1: Draw tool: Effects change position of text shadow

Post by helmut »

XnView 0.84 beta1

When changing the "Blur" value of the text shadow or using/unusing "Outline" , the position of the shadow changes.

Instead, the position of the shadow should remain unchanged when changing the effects and only change when changing the offset values.

From what I can see the problem only occurs if you activate/deactivate outline.

Not fixed in 0.84 beta3:
When switching "Outline" on/off (Size: 1.2), the position of the complete text changes. (This might be a different problem but very related).

Could you perhaps always use the same function with parameter "outline=0"?

this function is very slow so it's not good

O.k.. The function is slow regardless what the outline is set to, right?

O.k., so for now let's leave it the way it is. Closed.
