Improved subpixel text rendering for OLED (WRGB stripe, RGB triangular) -- Unfixable by ClearType Tuner (Over 100 upvotes in Feedback Hub)
### Description of the new feature / enhancement # EDIT: January 24th, 2025: - Proposed: [Alternative PowerToy Method: "Display Shaders PowerToy"](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/25595#issuecomment-2571621204) - Proposed: [Free Open Source Coding Offer to Microsoft to contribute "Display Shaders PowerToy"](https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/25595#issuecomment-2611345767) - Related: [Blur Busters Open Source Display Shaders v1.0.2 specifcation](https://blurbusters.com/osi#spec) (will include WOLED/QDOLED shader) # NOTE: I do paid work with display manufacturers. Repost of incorrectly-closed github item that someone else posted: > ClearType alters anti-aliasing assuming an RGB stripe subpixel configuration. More WOLED (WRGB stripe) and QD-OLED (RGB triangular) monitors are coming to market and have noticeable chromatic aberration/color fringing on edges of text. It would be nice if Windows had a built-in option to alter text rendering based on subpixel configuration of the monitor. > > ### Scenario when this would be used? > When using a WOLED or QD-OLED monitor with WRGB stripe or RGB triangular subpixel configuration to improve text clarity. > > ### Supporting information > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52eiLP3Zy-s > > https://youtu.be/k-6yc1dA--0?t=602 > > https://youtu.be/PR-1tMih0fM?t=442 It is definitely a real problem caused by unresolvable ClearType limitations.
