Yellowish font on increased font size

#1

Hi.

When I push Ctrl-+ and font gets larger, they also obtain slight yellow spots and marks all over the letters. It might depend on the monitor but consider these screenshots anyway:
ompldr.org/vYWpjMw//home/bz/pic/ … t-font.png
ompldr.org/vYWpjNA//home/bz/pic/ … -large.png

I tried all Xft.rgba options, all hintings and lcd filters in my ~/.Xdefaults, but the problem remains. What is weird is that changes to ~/.Xdefaults affect other programs, e.g. emacs but do not affect Sublime Text 2.

I’m using ArchLinux, Sublime Text 2 (build 2111).

Looks like an antialiasing issue to me. Try playing with font_options setting in File Settings.

// Valid options are "bold", "italic", "no_antialias", "gray_antialias", // and "subpixel_antialias". "font_options": ],

no_antialias removes yellow marks but it also makes font look terrible and angular. gray_antialias and subpixel_antialias did not fix the issue.
