D2D ClipString oddities

[killall-q]

On Direct2D, when using a StringAlign other than top, strings with the same Y value do not align with each other if they are using different ClipString settings. The difference can vary based on the font used. AccurateText=0 makes no difference.



Tested in 3.1 r2187. The code I used to create this example:

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]

BackgroundMargins=0,0,0,20
SolidColor=0,0,0

Edit: I noticed another oddity with how D2D ClipString chooses where to cut off text. Sometimes it is by word, and other times it doesn't mind cutting words in half, I don't really understand how it chooses. It may have something to do with the implementation of ClipString=2, but I'm using ClipString=1 here.
