I read this: http://blog.actiprosoftware.com/post/2008/04/03/WPF-and-Aero-glass-causes-ClearType-to-fall-back-to-grayscale-antialiasing.aspx and was wondering it there's been any followup or if there's any solution coming.
Not having Cleartype in the ribbon is actually a pretty obvious shortcoming in our application and has been immediately noticeable to all of the people who have seen it so far.
I did notice that the windows 7 theme doesn't have any graphical elements overlapping between the title bar area and the main window/ribbon area which might open up the possibility of using a secondary hwnd for the main ribbon area which would not need to be transparent and might let us use cleartype?
