Odd appearance of horizontal pointer slide

Hi, anyone have any ideas why Horizontal Pointer Slide numeric controls seem to display oddly when I have the Full Markers/Full Ticks selected?  (see the attached image).  For some reason all but the right-most marker have a bold appearance.  I don't have the font set to bold.

This happens at run time, but also can be seen in the UIR editor.  I've attached a UIR file to this message.

 

I'm using CVI 2010 SP1, on Windows 7 x64 Professional.  Aero is turned on.

 

Thanks for any help.

Hello -

 

This is unfortunately a known issue, and a result of enabling Microsoft ClearType.  To work around this, you can either disable ClearType or disable full tick marks.

 

I'm sorry for any inconvenience -

I guess I should have checked that list fist.  Thanks for the reply.  I guess for now I'll just live with it - the application is deployed to XP machines and XP doesn't have ClearType on by default as it is.
