Hello,
when I create a vector object (line/arrow...) and set softshadow to true, the complete rectangle which is crossed by the vector object slighty changes its color:
How can this be avoided? Can you advise which settings to use for having a shadowed line without a complete rectangle changing its color?
If this is by design, is there an update to be expected within the next year to solve this (this would be ok as the expected development time for the application is about 12 months)?
I really would appreciate any information on that because a complete project is on hold right now due to this issue. The affected application is mainly used for technical documentations and having lines and arrows with a shadow is a central feature.
Thank you very, very much for helping.
Regards
Sven |

Hello,
a workaround is to avoid to use gdi+, setting:
iegUseGDIPlus := false;
Instead, to fix it open ievect.pas and locate TImageEnVect.DrawObjects procedure. Just before the "second" instance of this row...
fCacheBitmap.AlphaChannel.Fill(0);
...insert below code:
SetStretchBltMode(fCacheBitmap.AlphaChannel.VclBitmap.Canvas.Handle, HALFTONE);
An official fix will be available from next minor version. |
