Displaying Data Labels at High Magnification

Question:

At high magnification, my cell and point labels become grainy and look terrible. How can I display these labels correctly?

Figure 1

Solution:

Use software rather than hardware rendering to display these node labels on a highly zoomed plot. See Figure 2.

1)  Download software_hardware_rendering_qmp.mcr  from our GitHub or create a macro with this code:

#!MC 1200
$!MacroFunction Name = "SwitchToSoftwareRendering"
SHOWINMACROPANEL = true
$!Page UseSoftwareRendering = true
$!EndMacroFunction

$!MacroFunction Name = "SwitchToHardwareRendering"
SHOWINMACROPANEL = true
$!Page UseSoftwareRendering = false
$!EndMacroFunction

2) Drag and drop this macro into your Quick Macro Panel in order to easily switch back and fourth from hardware to software rendering. See a previous KB article, Adding Macros to the Quick Macro Panel, for more information.
