Title:
Default password field character ••• is small
Status in Ubuntu Font Family:
Triaged
Status in “ubuntu-themes” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
A. At a graphical Ubuntu terminal, enter "gksudo whatever" or "pkexec gedit"
(without quotes). Or if you aren't on Ubuntu:
B. In a Web browser's address field, enter
data:text/html,<input type=password style="font-family:Ubuntu" value="12345">
The bullet chars displayed when you're typing a password on every
dialog which asks you for a password (i.e. GDM or gksudo) is too
small, definitely smaller than the DejaVu one. IMHO this is an
usability issue, because it's hard to see how many characters I typed.
As I said before, this isn't a problem when using DejaVu or Bitstream
Vera fonts.
