Thanks a lot Oleksandr ! It's clear now :)

Waiting for your samples updated (next version I presume ?).

Another question : can you explain me why the same XAML code produces these two different results in 16.3 and 17.3 ?

The hypertext underline is sticking to the text in 17.3, the 16.3 result seems a lot more readable...

Thanks.

There many changes between these versions, try to use other font or its properties.

I tried but can't find a suitable font... Do you have one ?

... I don't really think the solution here is to use another font. I'd like to continue using Segoe UI in my case...

I've tried more than 20 fonts and, for all of them, the underline is stuck to the text...

Oleksandr : can you help me ?

It seems to be related to GDI+.

See the examples below (note the space aroud the "sender adress" and the fact that the final dot is not positioned correctly when GDI+ is on) :

For my label, ok, I can access the "MarkupContext" object and disable GDI+.

But it seems to be a bug don't you think ?

And, also, for some controls (like taskpanel) I can enable markup but I can't access the markup context object !

Hello Lodep59,

I'm glad to inform you that the issue has been fixed.
As hotfix you can change function as below.

SIZE CXTPMarkupGdiPlusDeviceContext::MeasureString(LPCWSTR lpszText, int nCount) const
{
    SIZE sz = { 0 };

    RectF rc;
    RectF layoutRect(0, 0, 0.0f, 0.0f);

    if (Gdiplus::Ok == m_pGdiPlus->GdipMeasureString(GetGraphics(),
        lpszText, nCount, AccessFont(), &layoutRect,
        m_pGpStringFormat, &rc, 0, 0))
    {
        sz.cx = static_cast<int>(CXTPMathUtils::Round(rc.Width)); //fixed
        sz.cy = static_cast<int>(CXTPMathUtils::Round(rc.Height)); //fixed
    }

    return sz;
}
