The Delete Face property manager is distinctly fuzzy in appearance compared to any other property manager dialogue. While not a show stopper it is annoying and I can’t fathom why it should be this particular manager that gets rendered like this.
Has anyone else seen this?
Hmm, I'm not getting the same effect. Maybe it's just a fluke. Check if you get the same results after rebooting. Tell your boss you need a new expensive graphics board!
Rebooting doesn't fix this one. It's always like this.
Even detaching the Property manager does'nt help it. It's done this since I installed 2009, and upgradeing to 4.1 hasn't fixed it either.

Hi Mark,
There are a few PropertyManagers starting with SolidWorks 2009 where we are using a new Microsoft architecture called WPF to define the PropertyManager UI. While there are other benefits in using this architecture, this is one of the downsides is that WPF does not allow us to turn off anti-aliasing and this is what causes the "blurriness" you refer to. Other example PropertyManagers using this architecture are Convert Entites, Convert to Sheet Metal, and SpeedPak.
So, there is nothing wrong with your installation or machine and unfortunately, nothing you can do to turn off the anti-aliasing of the fonts in these PropertyManagers.
I hope this helps explain it,
Jim

Hi Mark,
Yes, we will continue to work with Microsoft to find a solution to this issue.
Thanks,
Jim
