Font anti-aliasing - TerryRitchie - 09-16-2022
I could have swore QB64 at one point supported font anti-aliasing through either the _PRINTSTRING or _PRINTMODE statements? I can't seem to find any way to anti-alias a loaded font. Am I missing something?

Hi Terry,
QB64 never had natively inbuild text antialiasing, however it was possible with the "falcon.h" C/C++ library header by Luke from the old team. I've made a simple wrapper around this which you can find in the old forum here: https://qb64forum.alephc.xyz/index.php?topic=2248.msg114890#msg114890

Thank you for the link. That must be what I remember then.
