RE: [Rd] RGUI font problem (PR#7749)

2005-03-27 Thread Christos Hatzis
It is running on MDI mode (default).

It appears that if I save the preferences in the default (My Documents)
folder after I make the change, the problem disappears.  I was just
Apply-ing the changes and then OK without saving the new preferences
first.  As a result, I did not have an Rconsole file in My Documents.

This might be the reason why the problem was not reproducible by the
development team. 

Thanks for you time.

This would appear to be the same as PR#7277.  That too is not really
reproducible.

One possible crucial piece of missing information: is RGui being run in SDi
or MDI mode?

 I had encountered a similar problem when changing the font in the R 
 Console and then then open the graphics device by plot(), the console
window whites out.
 this might be related to bug report 7271.  I mentioned it sometime 
 back and was told is was not reproducible.

 Now I have encountered a similar problem that does not appear to 
 relate to the graphics device. I started an R session, changed the font to
size 8, Apply/OK.
 Then I opened a help page by typing
 ?plot
 the R help page opened in a different (system?) font and the font in 
 the console also changed to the same bold-face, non-proportional font.  
 Then when I typed another help command, the console completely blanked
out.

It is almost certainly not blank, just using the wrong foreground colour.

 There seems to be some strange interaction going on between new 
 windows opened by the system and the font setting in the GUI preferences.

Yes, and that is PR#7277.
