Re: [PD] Object size Pd Extended
From the screenshot it looks like the right font is loaded, but it is messed up, since the p and g are higher than the other letters, for example. Looks like you are running Ubuntu/Hardy. Which language are you using? It works fine on both of my Ubuntu/Hardy machines, and it worked before on Feisty and Gutsy. My guess is still that something is wrong with your machines font handling. Which version of Tcl/Tk do you have installed? .hc On May 9, 2008, at 10:34 PM, Alex Lucas wrote: Hello everyone, Hans thank you for your reply.
