Hi, 

I decided to update TouchGFX in my project from 4.20 to the newest 4.23. I noticed some artifacts in font rendering from time to time. Below I attached a photo of the issue.

Do you have any ideas why this is happening?

Hello @ypiotrp ,

Could you please specify what text settings and typographies you are using? like are you using Binary fonts or Mapped or Unmapped? 

And what board are you using?

Thank you

Hello @Mohammad MORADI ESFAHANIASL ,

I'm back to the topic. I upgraded to TouchGFX 4.23.0 mainly for SVG images. I checked if the issue persist on older versions of TouchGFX which still have SVG images. I stopped at 4.21.4 and unfortunately artifacts in the font rendering are still in place. 

I cannot share with you my whole project (confidential) but I created some sample screen using ST stock images. Below you can find a video and also my configuration you asked about:

The board is custom. We use parallel RGB LTDC RGB666 to drive the LCD. We also use DMA2D. The configuration of the peripherals:

I attached the video describing my problem and also source code of the screen.

Thank you for your help,
