TextRenderingMode Enumeration

.NET Framework 4.6 and 4.5

Defines the supported rendering modes for text.

Namespace: System.Windows.Media
Assembly: PresentationCore (in PresentationCore.dll)

Syntax

public enum TextRenderingMode

XAML Attribute Usage

<object property="enumerationMemberName" .../>

Members

	Member name	Description
	Aliased	Text is rendered with bilevel anti-aliasing.
	Auto	Text is rendered with the most appropriate rendering algorithm based on the layout mode that was used to format the text.
	ClearType	Text is rendered with the most appropriate ClearType rendering algorithm based on the layout mode that was used to format the text.
	Grayscale	Text is rendered with grayscale anti-aliasing.

Remarks

The Grayscale anti-aliasing algorithm chooses the appropriate ClearType algorithm to get bitmap representations for the glyphs. The intensity of the red, green, and blue channels of a pixel of rendered text is the value of the green channel in the corresponding pixel of the bitmap representation of the glyph.

Supported in: 4.6, 4.5, 4
