[Bug 864855] Re: Mushy/blurry/jagged fonts in software center
hi. rookie speaking :) I have the mushy/blurry/jagged fonts not only in software center, but in all tabs/menus (i.e the names of the launcher icons when you put the cursor on the icon, the upper right menu list which has shut down etc.) It starts normal, after a while I boot in they become horrible, additionally, the performance is very low. now i am in recovery mode and fonts keep normal, and the performance is very well I must say. but the resolution is 1024*768 there are no greater options. I have 1400*900 screen. that option and many other settings' options (i.e appearance options) are missing. I have a P4, 512 mb RAM pc, sorry if it is too ridiculus to try to use Oneiric with this pc. thanks in advance. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864855 Title: Mushy/blurry/jagged fonts in software center To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/864855/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Matthew McGowan, that's ok, I think I was more blunt than you. Fitoschido, I tried changing the UI font to 8pt, and it only gets smaller - not blurry as the font in software center. It could be that I still have the wrong version installed, but there is no doubt that on my computer, there is a difference either in the way the font is rendered, or in the way it's blended onto the background. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864855 Title: Mushy/blurry/jagged fonts in software center To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/864855/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 864855] Re: Mushy/blurry/jagged fonts in software center
We use the Gtk.render_layout so text should be rendered as other Gtk.Labels would be rendered. 2 things, please ensure you are testing the correct branch, either of the three linked branches. the other thing to point out is that you have your font set to 9, on my system i have 11, i assume this is the default value as i have not tweaked the font size value. The text you are complaining about as blurry is intended to be small relative to the normal text (in your case, size 9 font). It looks as if at font size 9, this smallness, coupled with the bold weight is causing what you consider the blurriness. If you could try a larger application font size, perhaps even just increasing to 10, and see how things look for you? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864855 Title: Mushy/blurry/jagged fonts in software center To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/864855/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 864855] Re: Mushy/blurry/jagged fonts in software center
How would I know whether I'm testing the correct branch? I was linked to here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed and did as it told. I now have 5.0.2 installed. Matthew McGowan, what exactly is it that you are saying about the fonts? Can you not see on the screenshot that the text View (in the menu) and the text Games (in the window) have the same pixel size (8 pixels high) but have different gamma correction? I know it _should_ be rendered as other gtk labels, but it _isn't_. That's what this bug is about. I made a gtk label in Glade and pasted a screenshot of it right next to the offending text in the software. To me, it's very obvious that the text is wrong, even though the size is the same. It is definetely not because of the small font. Even if I select a smaller UI font, fonts in other applications only get smaller - they don't get uglier. I don't understand what you mean by saying the text is intended to be small compared to the default font - it's not. The text I circled seems to have normal font size. However, the categories pane on the left, has a smaller font. Which I also dislike. I selected Ubuntu 9 for the UI font because _that's the font I'd like to be used for UI_. I don't see any good reason to disregard the user's preferences. ** Attachment added: software-center.png https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/software-center/+bug/864855/+attachment/2561649/+files/software-center.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/864855 Title: Mushy/blurry/jagged fonts in software center To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/864855/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@tsg1zzn: I already have Ubuntu at 9 pt. The “problem” is not blurriness. It’s just that fonts in caruosels (What’s New and Top Rated) are 8 pt size and not 9.
