Public bug reported: When I run kompare with the font set to Deja Vu Sans Mono 10pt, the display is fine (http://quitebig.com/temp-pics/ubuntu-kompare- bug/kompare-1-deja-10pt.png)
If I reduce it to 9pt then it chops off the tops of the characters (http://quitebig.com/temp-pics/ubuntu-kompare-bug/kompare-1-deja- 9pt.png) It also happens with bitmap font Fixed Misc 9pt (http://quitebig.com /temp-pics/ubuntu-kompare-bug/kompare-fixed-misc-9pt.png) It's fine with "Courier 10 pitch" 11pt (http://quitebig.com/temp-pics /ubuntu-kompare-bug/kompare-courier-10-pitch-11pt.png) but it breaks with 10pt (http://quitebig.com/temp-pics/ubuntu-kompare-bug/kompare- courier-10-pitch-10pt.png) It's fine with FreeMono 12pt (http://quitebig.com/temp-pics/ubuntu- kompare-bug/kompare-freemono-12pt.png), but breaks with 11pt (http://quitebig.com/temp-pics/ubuntu-kompare-bug/kompare-freemono- 11pt.png) and 10pt (http://quitebig.com/temp-pics/ubuntu-kompare-bug /kompare-freemono-10pt.png) I've also noticed that if you make the font too big, it doesn't allow enough vertical height, eg using Hack 17pt (http://quitebig.com/temp- pics/ubuntu-kompare-bug/kompare-hack-17pt.png) $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS Release: 18.04 $ apt-cache policy kompare kompare: Installed: 4:17.12.3-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 4:17.12.3-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 4:17.12.3-0ubuntu1 500 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status The same thing also happens on my laptop (and also did with Ubuntu 16 LTS). Both machines use Nvidia cards, though I'm using the free driver instead of Nvidia's own because the specific Nvidia driver only supported one monitor and only ran at 1024x768. I installed this as kubuntu, in case that matters. ** Affects: kompare (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/1809128 Title: When I reduce the font size the tops of the letters get chopped off To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kompare/+bug/1809128/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
