You can't. However you can set a somewhat longer text, for a tooltip displayed only at mouseover, by means of the 'guitabtooltip' option. If you were using Motif or Athena rather than GTK2, you could define a separate font, distinct from your 'guifont', for tooltips (and a third one for the toolbar), see ":help highlight-font". But, remember, the font format (also for 'guifont') is not the same for these GUIs as it is for GTK2, see http://vim.wikia.org/wiki/Setting_the_font_in_the_GUI Best regards, Tony. -- Philogyny recapitulates erogeny; erogeny recapitulates philogyny. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
