Hi, Thanks in advance.
I'd like to set the font size of a general widget in a dialog box as part of the initialization of the dialog. I'm not using Glade -- I'm building the dialog by hand (actually auto-converting from a Windows resource file, but that's not relevant). If the widget I'm trying to set happens to be a Gtk::Label, then it works. But other widgets (e.g. Gtk::Frame or Gtk::Checkbutton) don't and just seem to use their default font no matter what. For example: class LXMyDialog : public LXDialog { public: LXMyDialog(); private: Gtk::Fixed m_Fixed; Gtk::Frame m_Frame }; LXMyDialog::LXMyDialog() { // Add the fixed widget to the dialog and size it properly get_vbox()->add(m_Fixed); m_Fixed.set_size_request( 566, 500 ); // Initialize the label so font is twice as big as default (this is the part that doesn't seem to work) Glib::RefPtr<Pango::Context> pPango = m_Frame.get_pango_context(); Pango::FontDescription fontD = pPango->get_font_description(); fontD.set_size(2 * fontD.get_size()); m_Frame.modify_font(fontD); m_Frame.set_label("Frame:"); m_Frame.set_size_request(532, 50); m_Fixed.put(m_Frame, 12, 16); show_all_children(); } (If I replace the above Gtk::Frame with Gtk::Label, it all works as I would expect) Again, thanks for any ideas you may have... -Garth -- Garth Upshaw Garth's KidStuff _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
