Enum HintingTarget 

pub enum HintingTarget {
    Mono,
    Smooth(SmoothHinting),
}

How to hint glyph outlines, i.e. how aggressively to nudge them onto the pixel grid before rasterizing. Mirrors skrifa::outline::Target.

Hinting trades shape fidelity for sharpness: snapping stems to whole pixels makes text crisp at small sizes / low dpi, at the cost of slightly distorting the designer’s outlines. At high dpi it matters little.

This only has an effect if the font is actually hinted — either it ships TrueType instructions, or it was auto-hinted (see FontTweak::hinting).

Used by FontTweak::hinting_target.

Variants

Mono

Strongest hinting, designed for aliased 1-bit (black & white) rendering.

Snaps stems hard to the pixel grid for maximum sharpness. egui always renders anti-aliased, so in practice this looks much like Self::Smooth here; it mostly exists for completeness. Maps to skrifa’s Target::Mono.

Smooth(SmoothHinting)

Hinting tuned for anti-aliased rendering. This is what you normally want, and what egui uses by default. Maps to skrifa’s Target::Smooth.
