Fonts annoyance
« on: January 25, 2005, 12:13:46 AM »

Hi all!

I just have this problem with the fonts in the servers tab:

The bold-font server, is the one I am currently connected to. The other big-font servers, are the servers I have been connected to this session. The little-font servers, are the rest of the servers. Why when it disconnects won't go back to the little font? and why the connected server doesn't use the little font in bold mode, but uses a big one font? I hope the screenshot makes this clearer.

Thanks.

Similar on Mac OS X.  See this bug report.

Could not see the bug report. It will reject my username/password. Was it solved/got a workaround?

Thanks.

Sorry, skolnick.  I didn't realize you need an account to view bugs.  Go to http://bugs.amule.org and create one, if you like.  They're not connected to your forum account/password.

Anyway, no, it's not fixed.  I don't know of a workaround.  aMule/wx is using system font settings, so theoretically you could control aMule's appearance by changing your system settings.  I think I've seen threads on the forums about Gnome themes or somesuch, but being a Mac user I don't pay much attention to those.

Edited to say, they are called gtk themes and to point you toward this thread.

I think the problem is that somewhere amule uses the system font (that's why on start the servers all show small font) but later stops using it and starts using an embedded one, or something, so everything turns bigger :(

Thanks anyway.

sorry, i should be more verbose ;)

it's a wxgtk+gtk2 problem and has nothing to do with the way you compiled it.
and yap, using gtk1 will solve it

cheers
