Bug ID: 119827
Summary: LibreOffice doesn’t interpret GtkBuilder’s “scale”
attribute under Windows
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: lowest
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Some information in our UI is secondary or complementary, and as such it
doesn’t need to be as prominent as other elements. GtkBuilder’s .ui files allow
designers to create a visual hierarchy by means of the “scale” Pango attribute
and style classes like “dim-label”. Together, they help to create visually
clearer UIs.
For instance, in a welded UI file like specialcharacters.ui (cui module), I can
add the following markup to the “charname” GtkLabel…:
<style>
<class name="dim-label"/>
</style>
<attributes>
<attribute name="scale" value="0.8"/>
</attributes>
… to make it smaller (by 1 pt) and dimmed. This works well under Linux, but
doesn’t have any effect under Windows, and I presume under macOS as well
(didn’t test). I would like that, under Windows, LibreOffice at least interpret
the scale part to make some secondary-info labels smaller. I don’t ask for the
dimmed style to be reimplemented into LO because I know such styles belong to
Gtk+ themes <rant>(which apparently Gtk+ developers intend to drop because
GNOME loves to sabotage itself as a viable, flexible platform)</rant>.
