My app is meant to be in landscape (wide) mode, but i figured, why not let it just naturally switch into portrait (tall) mode? so i got everything in the right place, *but* when the phone rotates to protrait mode, all the text becomes fuzzy and hard to read. switching back is fine.

I'm using the new default fonts.

here are 3 example screenshots from my phone. First is landscape mode, works pretty well. second 2 are various zoom levels of portrait mode, both fuzzy.

Is this a known issue? is there a fix? am i doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Bob

Try SetDisplayAspect(GetDeviceWidth()/GetDeviceHeight())

Well, that does fix my *text*, but then it screws up all my sprites.

ok, so as long as i call it near the top, and only once, that does seem to have a positive effect on my text's readability. (i wouldn't call it perfect, but it helps)
thanks!

Maybe when you detect the aspect change delete and recreate the text
