Re: QT_XFT gets reset to 0!!

This bugged me for awhile. First you will want to be sure anti-aliased fonts are working at ALL... while in KDE, open up a console and type QT_XFT=TRUE, then open "designer", which will run as a pure QT app, and if you get TT fonts, you will be golden.

KDE doesn't work because kicker (I beleive) sets QT_XFT=0 everytime one starts KDE. What you need to do is edit .kde/share/config/kcmdisplayrc, and add the following lines (both lines...)

[KDE]
AntiAliasing=true

This will perform the same action as using the non-existant check mark.

Good luck!

Thanks for your help. I assume that it will be obvious if the fonts are drawn anti-aliased then?

I put the lines in .kde/share/config/kcmdisplayrc and it works! Nice. Thanks.
