Mirco, I agree with you that this is not something we should support through a preference that is easily user settable. If it's relatively easy to have an override gconf key for the two fonts required, then feel free to support that and close the bug.
-- Consider ability to change libnotify-osd font size? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/335383 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Notify OSD Developers, which is subscribed to Notify OSD. Status in Notify OSD: New Status in “notify-osd” source package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The new notification system introduced in Ubuntu Jaunty is very nice, however I want to put my suggestions on the table for consideration. The font size for the notification bubble seemingly cannot be changed to allow for users with visual difficulties (such as myself) to more easily read the contents. After doing some research I have discovered that the standard font sizes for the notification on screen display are as follows: Title: application font Body: 0.8x application font This to me is very restrictive. I have my application font size set to 12 as it is the easiest for me and gives me the best combination of screen real-estate and usability. However, the notification font is far too small for me to read at a glance without using the compiz enhanced zoom plugin to read what is going on. I would suggest maybe adding an ability to set font sizes for notifications in one of two places; the pop-up notifications settings manager in system->preferences, OR in the standard font settings window in the appearances manager. Obviously, this would require a method of resizing the bubble to fit the contents depending on the size of the font used, but I do not believe this would be complicated to achieve. I do not believe this would complicate the system for users but it will give them greater control over how their system functions. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
