System Font changes not recognized #184445

Open burtonrodman opened 1 year ago

burtonrodman commented 1 year ago

Type: Bug

  1. from the Start Menu, open "Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows" (aka Performance Options)
  2. select "Adjust for best performance" (which clears all)
  3. hit OK
  4. the fonts in Visual Studio Code are no longer smoothed (expected)
  5. reopen Performance Options and check "Smooth edges of screen fonts"
  6. fonts change slightly, but are not as clear as normal
  7. log out of Windows and back in and re-open VS Code
  8. fonts are smooth as expected.

For reference I have a Dell laptop (1920x1200 @ 125% scale) plus 2 external Dell QHD monitors (2560x1440 @ 125% scale)

of course expected behavior would be for fonts to return to smooth edges without having to log out of Windows.
