Font is lores and messy

by Andy Hawkins · in iTorque 2D · 07/30/2012 (7:21 am) · 1 replies

When I add a textobject which defaults to 10 point Arial it's really small, and when I bring the font size up it's really pixelated. How do I fix this so it's clear and larger without pixelation.

@Andy - give this a try.

1)Open up your t2d level file and find your t2dtextobject.

2)In fontsizes, change that number to half the lineheight.
So if lineHeight is 8.4xxxx, make your font 42. You can go -/+ 1 on the font size to see if that makes it clearer. For retina you want to make the font size same as lineHeight, so make it 84.

I also noticed smaller font sizes are harder to get clear but the above process should still work.
