One great annoyance with XX is that it can't use bitmap system fonts -- the only kind of fonts which are really sharp and legible in small sizes, because they're pixel-drawn.

So I urge Charles and Xara to implement the use of bitmap fonts in the maintenance release. Yes, we will have to jump through some hoops, I guess, by turning off XX's native screen anti-aliasing and combining screen grab bitmaps, etc. - but if we could at least get the bitmap fonts to SHOW UP in XX's font menu, workarounds can be had. Now, you have to set your bitmap fonts in some other app and bring them in as graphics in XX, etc. Plain torture.

Yup. All we need is the possibility switch on/off the mathematically unaffected displaying of texts using pixel fonts. Like Bitmap editors do. Making bitmap screenshots in other programs isn't the way how it should be done.
