I'm totally lost with fonts in 1.3.15. Here's what I know:
* The text tool has a button for open, a button for clear, and a couple of buttons to indicate the direction of the text. There's also the text window. * There is a font dialog where I can see an "Aa" example of the fonts plus a quote in that font once I roll over a font label with the mouse. My problems are that: * I cannot change the color of the font, regardless of how I set my foreground color. * I cannot change the size of the font. * I don't seem to be able to actually change the font at all, although I can highlight a font in the font dialog. * Getting the text to appear on the image, even assuming the default font in black, is inconsistently successful. I've been using the earlier Gimp 1.x.x series for a few years now, so I know my way around Gimp fairly well. I'm pretty much all googled out with this problem. I'm running Gnome 2.2 off of the recent Ximian Desktop 2 updates. Could I just have a bum generic font widget from that? I feel like I taking crazy pills here. Has anyone else run into this? -Mike _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
