[PATCH v8 0/5] MR5068: win32u: Fix rendering of the rotated and scaled text.
These patches make a test case attached to the bug https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33190 work. -- v8: win32u: NtGdiExtTextOutW() should translate x,y from logical to device units at the last step. win32u: Fix device<->world width/height converters. win32u: Use slightly more readable names for DP/LP converters. win32u: Use correct helper for converting width to device units. gdi32/tests: Add some tests for rotated font metrics. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/5068

And we should take into account that font metrics for Wine and Windows versions of Tahoma couldn't match precisely, so a match within 1-2 pixels is not really possible. Does new version of the patches look better? Pretty large margin (5) for string cx extent is necessary to mitigate difference of Tahoma font metrics between Wine and Windows, and should be expected for longer strings.

It's probably worth to add a couple of notes: 1. If I use tahoma.ttf from Windows I get almost identical results between Windows and Wine. 'Almost' is because Windows produces more visible errors (+2/-2) for a rotated font while under Wine I get practically the same results for all angles. 2. A test case attached to the bug https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33190 works and displays rotated text identical to what I see under Windows. Huw, could you please have a look at this MR once again? -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/5068#note_109562
We have some custom fonts already in gdi32 tests. Could we perhaps use one of those instead of Tahoma? -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/5068#note_116001

Sure, we could. That won't help much I'm afraid, in my testing I dropped exactly same Windows fonts to Wine prefix and even that produced pretty large differences in 135 degrees, so that I removed 135 degrees from test data. That made the tests in current version of the patch have very little difference between Wine and Windows, and that shouldn't be a problem anymore.

Okay, I guess I was thrown off by your earlier saying it was "almost identical", but in that later comment "pretty large differences".
probably because it doesn't use floating point math for calculations. Maybe we shouldn't either, then? We do use floating point to scale font metrics everywhere in gdi32/win32u, why should we stop doing that and make scaling results worse just because rotated font metrics scaling is bad in Windows? The test application attached to https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33190 demonstrates that rotated fonts match pretty closely in Windows and Wine, probably that could be a better measure of the patch quality? Besides, I have a real world application that uses rotated fonts and rotated text in it looks pretty good, and matches what I observe under Windows.

I don't know, sometimes matching Windows is seen as a good thing. I'm just trying to propose anything that might help this make progress.

I understand and appreciate it very much, thank you for your help. As I see current situation is that existing code uses floating point math but doesn't support font metrics and coordinate rotation, new code keeps using floating point math and adds support for correct calculations of rotated font metrics and coordinates however this doesn't fully match Windows results because under Windows the results are much more coarse. Doesn't that look like an improvement?

I'd like to see these patches included in upcoming wine-11.0, what should I do to make the patches accepted before the code freeze? -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/5068#note_118834
Is there something that could be done here to move things forward? -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/5068#note_127983
