I'm sorry to be so dense, but nothing I've tried so far seems to work. I
set "Use Markup" to "Yes" and tried a number of different Pango markup
incantations:
<span face="Arial">End of Session ?t</span>
<span font_family="Arial">End of Session ?t</span>
<span font_desc="Arial">End of Session ?t</span>
<span font_family="sans">End of Session ?t</span>
I chose "Arial" because that's what displayed in Character Map when I
right-moused over the character of interest. None of the variants I tried
resulted in a Greek Capital Letter Delta. I tried "sans" when none of the
"Arial" attempts worked. The markup seems to be working. I don't see any
<tag>s in the live display. It's just not setting the font. If I give an
invalid attribute name (e.g. <span font="sans">...) the invalid Pango markup
is displayed.
I saw no other way to describe font information to Glade. I was working
from this documentation of the Pango Markup Language:
http://www.moeraki.com/pygtkreference/pygtk2reference/pango-markup-language.html
though the reference page at
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/pango/PangoMarkupFormat.html
seems to document the same attributes.
