PL 20.40b12 x64
I have an AddIn, compiled as an executable (.EXE), that creates a text layer. When PL is first started, and the AddIn is run, the lines of text are distorted when the image is viewed at 100%: If I change the View to another percentage, or export the image, the text lines look correct: If I select the Text tool, and change the font, then after running the AddIn again the text looks correct at 100%.
The AddIn has a GUI form that contains one textbox (textBox1) and one button (OKbutton). In case the problem is with the AddIn code, here's the complete content of the Form1.cs (C#) file that creates the text layer:

// Initialize a ResourceManager to retrieve localized strings.
ResourceManager locRM = new ResourceManager("HelloWorld.Resource1", typeof(Form1).Assembly);
// Populate the text box with either the default text or the saved user's text.
if (Properties.Settings.Default.UserText == null || Properties.Settings.Default.UserText == "") {
textBox1.Text = locRM.GetString("DefaultText");
} else {
textBox1.Text = Properties.Settings.Default.UserText;
}
