Oh no, thank you, and I did this because I have practical needs for
it last week:-)
I noticed the Z-order problem you mentioned, which I even haven't
tried to solve. The lost AA problem is what I only saw when I rotated
the text, but it is not a surprize there is.
It would be better if it retains AA even if it is rotated. WarpBlt
doesn't do the perfect job for the fringe. But if I selected the
rotated text, the text looks ok because the bitmap is rotated after
the text is rendered on the green background, if I understand
correctly. If there is a WarpBlt trick that retains the alpha value
in some way, that would be helpful.
