1. BUG:

     In vfp9 (and vfp6, vfp7, vfp8), if we set the CheckBox.BackStyle property to 0 (Transparent), sometimes the checkbox captions are displayed with shadow.

     The bug only occurs when the CheckBox.BackStyle property is 0 (Transparent), it does not occur when the CheckBox.BackStyle property is 1 (Opaque).

     The bug only occurs for some fonts, for example,
     Arial, Consolas, Courier New, Impact, Lucida Console, Microsoft Sans Serif, Segoe UI, Symbol, Tahoma, Times New Roman, Simfang, Simhei, Simkai, Msyh,
     it does not occur for other fonts, for example,
     Courier, Fixedsys, MS Sans Serif, MS Serif, Modern, Roman, Script, Small Fonts, System, Terminal, Simsun.

     The bug only occurs when we select the "Turn on ClearType" checkbox in the Windows Control Panel,
     it does not occur when we don't select the "Turn on ClearType" checkbox in the Windows Control Panel.

     The bug was reported by Ravil.

     In vfp9, sometimes the checkbox captions are displayed with shadow, please refer to the picture testcheckboxbackstyle-vfp9.jpg:


2. CAUSE:

     There are some BUGs in the following code.


3. RESOLUTION:

     We can write some code to fix the BUG.
