That's a matter of opinion I think. IMHO gnome-appearance-properties should change ~/fonts.conf (or equivalent) and fontconfig should take settings from there and then apply those settings for whole system. Excuse me if I'm wrong - I'm not and expert in this. I just don't like applications choose and render fonts by their own.
And yes - there are bugreports about that in almost every non-Gnome application. I just can't believe that all of those apps are broken and I think it would be better to solve it on higher level, not for every application separately. If I install KDE, I can use gtk-qt-engine (or something like that) - tool that integrates itself into Control Center and let me change font and theme settings for GTK apps. Then my system looks very nice and consistent. Why isn't something like that in Ubuntu? -- gnome-appearance-manager doesn't set font setting for whole system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/560665 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
