No, that's not the point at all. The point is that there is only so much space for text in the UI. Have you tried running anaconda in Japanese or German at 800x600? When there's too much text on a spoke (those are both languages which use a lot of characters to say the same thing compared to English), the display of the spoke becomes entirely corrupted. > > The UI is to an extent written around the text.

That is not what I was planning to do at all. Fixed 96dpi is a ship that's sailed. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
