[Bug 983220] Re: subpixel rendering doesn't respect screen rotation

 

I confirm that this still is an issue with ubuntu 14.04.

If I select RGBA for subpixel I get blurry fonts when the screen in
inverted. This is not an issue if I select grayscale for subpixel.

I can run further tests if needed.

All the best.

Title:
  subpixel rendering doesn't respect screen rotation

Status in “freetype” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “wayland” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  1) Open gnome-terminal
  2) xrandr --output default --rotate inverted
  2) Open another gnome-terminal

  In both the original and the new terminal, text has red and blue
  "shadows" caused by subpixel rendering that doesn't match up to the
  inverted pixel layout resulting from the screen being flipped 180
  degrees.
