Hi,
If I set the UltraLiveTileView TextRenderingMode = Infragistics.Win.TextRenderingMode.GDI the Group Text will be cropped as per the attached image. The first image is with the default TextRenderingMode, the second is when it's switched to GDI.
We inherit from a base control that will change all the controls to GDI mode. I have overridden this particular control to resolve the problem, but I was wondering whether this is expected behaviour?
No doubt I'll forget having to change the TextRenderingMode should I use this control again.
Kind regards,
Nathan
Hello Nathan,
I have investigated TextRenderingMode - Group Name cropping issue, and I have asked our engineering staff to examine this further. To ensure that it will receive attention, I have logged this behavior in our internal tracking system with a Development ID of 239264. This will be assigned to a developer in a future sprint to review my investigation and confirm my findings or to offer a fix, or other resolution.
I have created a private case(CAS-185058-S9K3K3) to work on this issue. I will leave this case open and update you with any new information after the review. You can also continue to send updates to this case at any time.
You can view the status of the development issue connected to this case by selecting the "Development Issues" tab when viewing this case on the web site.
Please let me know if you need more information.

I was able to reproduce the TextRenderingMode - Group Name cropping issue that you mentioned. I will login it in our internal system and will update you with more information by end of day Wednesday.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Hi Sahaja,
The screen res is 1280 x 1024 100% scaling on 4 monitors.
I've asked a colleague to test it too. He gets the same issue as I've described. He tried it on Win 8.1 pro, VS2015, IG v15.1.20151.2132 screen res 1280*1024 100% scaling also on 4 monitors.
I don't know if this matters but the OS's are configured for UK settings (Format and Location etc set to English (United Kingdom).
Using your sample, I have tested the Tile Group name being cropped in LiveTileView when TextRenderingMode set to GDI issue with 16.2.20162.2111 version and VS2015 on Win7 machine. However, I did not observe the behavior that you described. Please specify the system resolution at which you were observing this issue. I will change my system resolution accordingly to test this issue further.
I will further look into this issue as soon as I hear back from you.
I couldn't recreate it with your sample.
I'm using v16.2.20162.2111, VS2015 on Win 7.
I've attached a sample project demonstrating the issue. Press the button on the form to load the tiles.
