Remarks
TextEdit-based editors use the standard GDI renderer even when you turn on the DirectX Hardware Acceleration in the Project Settings Page or call the global WindowsFormsSettings.ForceDirectXPaint() method. You need to enable this TextEditAdvancedModeOptions.UseDirectXPaint property for every editor that should operate in this mode.
