Hey there, I just now got back to this problem. Maybe I'm misunderstanding something, but it seems that the solution you recommend is solely a solution for Gtk::Labels -- not for general widgets. I can change the font size for labels -- but not for other widgets (e.g. CheckButton, RadioButton.). That's my issue.
To recap: How do I change the font size of a general widget? Thanks in advance. 2008/4/18 Garth's KidStuff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > that's not relevant). If the widget I'm trying to set happens to be a > Gtk::Label, then it works. But other widgets (e.g. Gtk::Frame or > Gtk::Checkbutton) don't and just seem to use their default font no matter > what. For example: I do this with gtk_label_set_markup(). For example: gtk_label_set_markup (GTK_LABEL (label), "<span font_desc=\"Sans\" size=\"medium\">hello</span>"); > // Add the fixed widget to the dialog and size it properly > get_vbox()->add(m_Fixed); > m_Fixed.set_size_request( 566, 500 ); Fixed size widgets should be avoided if you possibly can, I'm sure you know this. gtk has a lot of layout widgets you can use to make resizeable dialogs.
