Public bug reported: [This is copied from <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=325767> so that it can be linked to a blueprint.]
Currently the "font_name" field in the gtkrc file is the only way to change fonts and it only allows an absolute change. If a user wants to use a smaller font for certain widgets or if an application tries to provide a gtkrc file that results in a more compact dialog layout, it would be a lot nicer if the font could be specified relative to the desktop-wide configured font. This missing feature leads for example to <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=325324>. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/698008 Title: Relative font sizes/weights not possible in gtkrc -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
