To all the font gurus: In gtk+ version 2.6 I specified to draw some text on my drawing area using the font "Sans bold 10" and received a favourable result. In gtk+ version 2.10 I have not changed this specification and suddenly the font is much larger than in version 2.6, to the point I have to change it to make everything work as before. I know this must relate to gtk+ since I have both versions installed on my box and can simply point my application to one or the other and demonstrate the difference. I was under the impression that font sizes were fixed. I guess I was wrong. But this confuses me, why would a font change real size across different versions of gtk+? On a more general note, how can I produce and provide my program across multiple versions of gtk+ (now and into the future) without having to worry about fonts changing their real size on the fly? thanks for any pointers and explanations, richard _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
