--- Comment #7 from Yury <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Jay Philips from comment #5) > (In reply to Yury from comment #2) > What font did you place in the Font field? Usually, one of the squarish, blackish fonts with easily distinguishable i/l shapes etc., in (in fact, Chicago and Charcoal analogues -- think Grana Padano, Virtue, MacType). I work with OOO/LO texts and formulas a lot, and consider such setup easier on eyes (I use the analogous setup in Firefox, BTW.) Text window is the focus of attention, and UI doesn't get in the way but is readable. This is about the opposite of what's expected of 'system' font, which is used for menus, dialogs, etc., through which we convey our meaning to system. There the 'system' font is the main medium, for all applications in system-wide context, so there are different requirements to it. > (In reply to Yury from comment #4) > I believe it should be simple for you to change the system-wide font on > linux and doing so would change not only the menubar but also the menubar > menus. But I already know I can. :) I chose the GTK system font like 15 years ago, and tug the config along through my homedirs. Same with qtconfig. But in fact, I regret there is no capability in system to change the applications' fonts individually -- and I mean change easily, like it was done on OS/2 20+ years ago. > Just as a reference, this functionality was changed with bug 87016 and i > think having the ability to change it on linux may be beneficial as the font > situation on linux isnt the best and it would be beneficial for bugs like > bug 70857, where not being able to uncheck this causes sluggishness in the > UI. > > Will through it to ux-advise to let them give their input into it. Bug 87016 was somewhat dubiously formulated and got about zero discussion before it was fast-tracked into the code. I didn't know about that urge to remove the option, or I would chime in. Now it seems it's too late. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
