Von: Martin Nordholts [EMAIL PROTECTED] IMO letting the user have full control of what fonts that is available in GIMP completely aligns with the product vision [1]. I'd expect to be able to tag them.

Alexandre, Fontmatrix, allows you to tag your fonts but I don't think it has control over deactivating system fonts. I have tested (for the first time) Fontmatrix 0.4.2 from getdeb.net on Ubuntu 8.04.1 and it does bring back good memories of using extensis suitcase (a mac font manager any designer will know) except for the fact that Fontmatrix does not allow you to deactivate system fonts. Don't get me wrong, the option is there, but after deactivating a group of fonts, one by one, checkboxes are still there... and I still see them all in GIMP. Although this is not a workaround for me yet, I will looking into this project as it is relevant to managing fonts. -komputes ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

At least that's what I see in the SVN trunk version (v0.5 is coming). Even if it didn't, that would still rather be a Fontmatrix issue, not a GIMP's one ;-) Alexandre ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

I had a look at the code and I don't think we can persuade fontconfig to exclude the system fonts.

[Gimp-developer] Font Preferences needs to give user power over system fonts path
Font preferences allows the user to add custom paths to font directories. The system fonts are included by default but are not viewable/removable by going to File Preferences Folders Fonts Even though the fonts found in /usr/share/fonts are included in Gimp's font selections, they cannot be seen in the font preferences (list of paths). I have suggested a feature be added giving user control over the system fonts. If you are a GIMP developer, please let me know what you think of this by posting to bugzilla: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=546344 The proposed feature request will give control over system fonts from within GIMP, so that the user could chose to turn them off if preferred. In turn this will allow power users to have full control over the fonts displayed in GIMP. -komputes ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
