Shifted and incorrectly blended semigraphics in Terminal app

Description (last modified by diver)

I've attached screenshot of Midnight Commander running in Terminal (in Haiku hrev45432) that shows these two problems:

a) the text rendering seems to be shifted up by 1-2 pixels, most noticeable on the semigraphics

b) it's incorrectly blended in these overlapping areas

<PulkoMandy> looks like the very old bug with the text under icons being offset in Haiku 
<PulkoMandy> yes, I think everything is shifted 1 pixel up/left in Haiku wrt to beOS 
<PulkoMandy> and the be book says it's BeOS fault 
<PulkoMandy> "The BeOS draws text one pixel above the logical baseline to maintain compatibility with an earlier version of one of our most commonly-used font rasterizers." 
<PulkoMandy> that's what the Be Book says 
<PulkoMandy> (BView::DrawString) 
<PulkoMandy> the bug is in our DrawString code, and most of our interface kit compensate for it to get apps looking right 
<PulkoMandy> so you see it only on code written on BeOS and which does custom text drawing in a BView 
<PulkoMandy> I think that's not much apps besides Tracker and Terminal, and maybe Sawteeth 
<PulkoMandy> maybe we could try Sum-it as well 
<diver> could you please fix that in Tracker? 
<PulkoMandy> I tried to, years ago, and the devs told me we have to fix it in DrawString instead

A pair of tickets that are left since I was fond of Terminal improvements. I'm not sure I can finalize them in the nearest future.

Not visible anymore, I guess the change of default font fixed this?
