Re: Windows 8 Image pixellation
I JUST posted another Win 8 font issue... maybe it is related. What version of LC are you using?

Windows 8 Image pixellation

Re: Windows 8 Image pixellation
Skip: Hmm.. I compiled the project on March 28, whatever version of LC was current at that time. Probably 7.0.3. Sorry, the problem just came up and I probably can see what version compiled it, but I don’t know how.
