@mathias Do you know if and when Opera will start using DirectWrite on Windows? It will be in Chrome 37, so I'm curious about Opera's plans.

@bram_stein This is a Chromium-level feature, so it should be available once we get to Chromium 37, i.e. in Opera 24. +@odevrel1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@bram_stein I didn’t know that was the case for the Chromium fix. (https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=25541 … doesn’t say.) But if so – then yes, sadly

@mathias The code explicitly only uses DW on Win7: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chromium/src/content/common/sandbox_win.cc&q=ShouldUseDirectWrite&sq=package:chromium&type=cs&l=561 … Still happy it is happening though! Thanks for the confirmation.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like
