    Hi guys.

    My Gnome's default terminal does only select from
    _mono_ type of fonts & I remember it could choose any
    font.
    Alternative solutions, such a _terminator_ do allow to
    select any font.

    In Gnome's terminal 'font scaling' also seems "broken"
    - certainly on my Fedora - I select "Liberation Mono"
    and I start size at 6 and keep increasing by small
    fraction and the font does not seem changing until
    suddenly, at some given size it "jumps" the size & ...
    shape too.

    I do not suppose it's my environment - I've been
    upgrading my Fedora since... forever, as opposed to
    "clean" install - and I think it's rather "broken"
    terminal, but..
    I wanted to consult other Fedorians to be sure.


Using a fresh install of F39, in Gnome Terminal "Preferences" I selected the "Unnamed" Profile, set "Custom font" to Liberation Mono, and click on the  "Custom Font" bar to get a "Choose A Terminal Font" window. The size changes in the window and the terminal also changes to match when I close the "Chose ..." window.  I have TrueType Liberation fonts:

% fc-list | grep LiberationMono
/usr/share/fonts/liberation-mono/LiberationMono-Regular.ttf: Liberation Mono:style=Regular /usr/share/fonts/liberation-mono/LiberationMono-Bold.ttf: Liberation Mono:style=Bold /usr/share/fonts/liberation-mono/LiberationMono-BoldItalic.ttf: Liberation Mono:style=Bold Italic /usr/share/fonts/liberation-mono/LiberationMono-Italic.ttf: Liberation Mono:style=Italic

Liberation Mono as the example
I might not remembered exactly:
some range and no change < 6.366 > changes visibly substantially
range no change < 6.875 > again changes visibly quite a bit
Also does not seem that "Cell spacing" _width_ works "properly"

And my question about _only_ mono fonts being available in Ghome's terminal (while other terminals choose any font) ?

many thanks, L.
