Brackets fonts look bad on OSX with fullHD external monitor #13195

This is how Brackets look on Windows7: windows7

Now this is on Macbook Pro (with Retina display) with 1920*1080 external monitor connected, fonts are blurry and hard to look at (notice for example the e letter in LESS word): osx-yosemite

This is a bit better, when $(document.body).css("-webkit-font-smoothing", "subpixel-antialiased") is executed (but that's not Brackets default setting): osx-yos-subpixel-antialiased

Atom by default looks a bit better in this situation; Visual Studio Code looks in my opinion the best

Font rendering, aliasing... I believe it's related to #11013

Probably, didn't know about that issue. It's really a deal-breaker. I had to switch to Windows when using external monitors... And when I need OSX, I can't use Brackets...
