[Bug 163451] Re: Unable to run GNOME Font Viewer in Ubuntu 7.10 from menu
I've just followed Jonathan Fritz's path. Having freshly installed 7.10 I did System - Preferences - Main Menu to see what could be changed. Finding Applications - Other - Gnome Font Viewer I thought it sounded useful and ticked it. Selecting the newly appeared menu item show a minimised button in the panel saying starting which disappears after a bit. The user is left confused and puzzled and has to waste time investigating. If it doesn't make sense to run it from a menu then it shouldn't be there in the menu choices for the user to trip over. It would be nice if some effort can be made to see if it can be removed without impacting its use an a Nautilus action. ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Confirmed -- Unable to run GNOME Font Viewer in Ubuntu 7.10 from menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/163451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Also when one types font into the desktop search applet (alt+F3) the font-viewer shows up there, when selected it crashes the search applet. -- Unable to run GNOME Font Viewer in Ubuntu 7.10 from menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/163451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The entry is not listed because it's not supposed to be ran from a menu but as an action using nautilus ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid -- Unable to run GNOME Font Viewer in Ubuntu 7.10 from menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/163451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Sebastien, I believe the menu item is installed in a default installation but is not activated when going to the menu editor (system-preferences-main menu) you can activate the gnome font editor menu item in the other menu the menu item is then visible and behaves as described above - does nothing -- Unable to run GNOME Font Viewer in Ubuntu 7.10 from menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/163451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 163451] Re: Unable to run GNOME Font Viewer in Ubuntu 7.10 from menu
there is no such menu entry on a default installation, could you try to figure what you installed to get this one? ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- Unable to run GNOME Font Viewer in Ubuntu 7.10 from menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/163451 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
