ClearTypeHint Enumeration

An enumeration that specifies a hint to the rendering engine that text can be rendered with ClearType.

Namespace:  System.Windows.Media
Assembly:  PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)
public enum ClearTypeHint
<object property="enumerationMemberName" .../>
Member name Description
Auto The rendering engine uses ClearType when it is possible. If opacity is introduced, ClearType is disabled for that subtree.
Enabled The rendering engine re-enables ClearType for the current subtree. Where opacity is introduced in this subtree, ClearType is disabled.

Use the RenderOptions.ClearTypeHint attached property to control how text is rendered on a translucent background. For more information, see RenderOptions.ClearTypeHint.
