--- Code: ---#define EXTENT_TEST wxT(" `~!@#$%^&*()-_=+\\|[]{};:\"\'<,>.?/1234567890abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ")

XYPOSITION SurfaceImpl::Ascent(Font &font) {
    SetFont(font);
    int w, h, d, e;
    hdc->GetTextExtent(EXTENT_TEST, &w, &h, &d, &e);
    const int ascent = h - d;
    SetAscent(font, ascent);
    return ascent;
}

XYPOSITION SurfaceImpl::Descent(Font &font) {
    SetFont(font);
    int w, h, d, e;
    hdc->GetTextExtent(EXTENT_TEST, &w, &h, &d, &e);
    return d;
}

--- End code ---

You can see in the pictures posted that the ascent of the characters after the "//TODO" are higher than for the "//TODO" part, so the numbers computed computed using the hard coded sting won't work for rendering those characters. 

Is there a font where Asian and Latin characters are rendered with the same ascent?  If so, that font should work.

I tried font "WenQuanYi Micro Hei Mono" which include Chinese and Latin character, it works fine! but I don't like the Latin  and number characters in this font.

Please see the screen shot.

@New Pagodi: Can we do something about this problem?
@edwardlucas: Do you use the same font in geany as in c::b?

Maybe.  I don't know enough about fonts or non-English languages to have a better solution.

Yes I tried same fonts in geany, all fonts have problem displayed in C::B all work fine in geany.

thanks.
