Hello,
DirectWrite support depends on Java and there's a lot of issues with that.
There's an existing request https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JRE-11 - please vote for it with thumb up button and leave a comment to let the developers know that you need that feature.
You can try enabling the experimental DirectWrite support by following these steps:
* Open Help > Custom VM Options
* Append there -Ddirectwrite.font.rendering=true line
* Save file and restart PhpStorm
thank you very much!!!
i try it and the effect is very good ! just i want , thks
sorry!
i append it to the config file , but it no effect. after i add the -Ddirectwrite.font.rendering=true nothing was happen,
pls help me to check whether there is other method to check the problem.
my os is windows 7, phpstorm is 2017.2
If it made no difference, most probably it means that the issue is not caused by not using DirectWrite.
Could you please clarify how exactly font rendering is different? To me, it looks exactly the same
when i append -Ddirectwrite.font.rendering=true and -Ddirectwrite.font.rendering=false there was nothing happen, so i can not sure the different of font rendering
could you pls help me to check if the directwrite is enabled?
Please check that C:\Windows\System32 (or corresponding folder on your system) contains Dwrite.dll file.
Also please attach a screenshot that would illustrate the issue.
dwrite.dll is exist in the path C:\Windows\System32
it seems the directwrite is not support?
Looks like it is not supported indeed. That option was just a suggested experimental support from https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JRE-11 - issue is still open which means there is no official support.

ok, thank you very much!

You can't delete it on your own, but we can do that for you - just tell us the filename.
i can not sure the full filename, but it contains "NDRANDY" and my phpstorm version is 2017.2
