    Has anyone else got a Macbook white and uses DWCS3? I’m sort of thinking not, as Textmate/BBedit seem to be the faves, but I like the ftp and code complete as I’ve used it for a long time.
    Anyway, if you do, do you find the fonts (code view ) to be either: clear but too small,(monaco 7pt) or the right size but way to fuzzy (monaco >7pt)?

    I’ve fiddled with the font smoothing, changed fonts, stood on one leg etc, but no joy.
    Does anyone have a fix/winning combination? Thanks.

    I don’t know if this helps, but I use the “default” for BBEdit—Monaco 12 pt. with 4 spaces per tab. Being a monospaced font, I have it set for no text smoothing below 10 pt. in the prefs. (You can also set smoothing above and below a certain size for non-monospaced fonts.) There may be a setting in DW that regulates smoothing in the same way. 7 pt. does seem awfully small. Playing with face, size and smoothing, I can get just about any type of font display so you should be able to find something that looks good to your eyes.
