EVALUATION The fix will be to add a client property (SwingUtilities2.AA_TEXT_PROPERTY_KEY) to JComponent, if this client property is set all text drawn for this component will be anti aliased. GTK will install this by way of GTKStyle.installDefaults which is called every time a UI is installed, or the style changes. GTKLookAndFeel will lookup the property from the desktop property: gnome.Xft/Antialias, which is an Integer value with 1 indicating aa is on. A handful of text classes needed to be changed to pass around the component so that the AA property could be correctly looked up. ###@###.### 2004-04-13
