Pixelated fonts

Post by pHneutral »

Hi there.

I just started to explore the Alpinequest app, and noticed place names on the map aren't vector based. The resolution seems rather low, which isn't really noticeable when using the 'high' setting of the map display resolution. But then all names seems rather small and difficult to read. So I'm sort of forced to use the medium or low setting, which then makes the names of places quite pixelated.
Am I overlooking some setting perhaps? Or it is what it is?

Thanks.

This application only use raster maps (the reason has already been discussed multiple times here), so unfortunately you cannot only increase the size of the labels, and not the rest.
The app will display the map exactly as it is generated by the map server.
Do you like AlpineQuest ? Leave a small comment on Google Play !

Thanks for your reply. I hope in the future road layers will become vector based or at least will get some kind of anti-aliasing going, as on my (modern) Android device the pixelation is very high.

Best,
Dennis
