Add disable Anti-Aliasing for text

Hi @ReduxFlakes, Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and detailing your use case and current challenges. I truly appreciate it.

I’ve taken some time to explore our community to see if there’s an existing plugin that could help, but unfortunately, I haven’t found one yet. I hope to gain some insights from our community on this.

We’re excited to see how community responds to this idea.

Thanks again for your valuable input.

I have several projects where pixelated text is essential because it provides better contrast at small sizes. I’ll also note that for anyone designing retro game UIs, pixelated text is a requirement for most text.

Same Problem here … especially the small font sizes are very blurry after the export in the original Size – looks terrible. It would be nice to have an antialiasing feature like in photoshop to optimize the Font Rendering for Images. Yes, its oldschool but sometimes useful. In my case, I have to go back to Photoshop to rebuild the design there for a better export quality.

Being able to disable this would mean fonts look the same in Fimga as they do in the browser, which currently they don’t:

Figma left, browser right.

I find this frequently frustrating as I spend a lot of time getting the right weights and sizes, only to have it all undone when rendered in the browser.

I think we should not need to add sub pixel antialisasing/font smoothing in the code.

Just wanted to open up the very same suggestion and it´s crazy that it´s almost two years since this was posted and nothing happened. Having crispy fonts is nice but this behavior alters what a type designer intended with his typeface. And it´s just not that. Not every browser supports this. So sure, we can add this parameter easily via CSS but we can´t tell for sure if each browser will render this accordingly. Also it created already a lot of confusion for other designers in our company since what they did in Figma was different from what the got on live. Luckily I knew about this and could tell them how to fix it but still just provide an option to toggles this behavior on/off. Can´t be this hard since it´s a single parameter in css. And one additional thought: This also causes a drift between visuality across different usages. Like we´re actually using font-smoothing on our website but our social media assets don´t. Their bold or regular weight looks different from what we´re using. So when having a unified brand typeface this shouldn´t be the case.
