Problem drawing text using the GraphicsPath

2 New Member
I'm using GraphicsPath to draw text onto a graphics object (PictureBox). My graphics object has been scaled so that the top left corner is 400000, 6000000 and the bottom right corner is 400100, 5999900. If I draw text directly to the graphics object using DrawString then the text comes out fine, however If I first add my string to my GraphicsPath then use the FillPath method of the graphics object the same text is displayed with very poor quality. (See Figure 1). I've set the SmoothingMode to HighQuality.
If the graphics object is scaled so that the top left corner is 0,0 and the bottom right corner is 100,100 then both methods produce good results.

Any help would be great

Note : Figure 1 doesn't really show much of a difference. The black text is fine but the blue text is of a much reduced quality.

Could it be related to your choice of font and design (bold/italic/normal) and size scale?

Hi, I'm looking for examples of the different brush and fill styles that can be made using System.Drawing.Drawing2D.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
