Although sonic-visualiser is qt4-based, its fonts doesn't respond to the font settings in qtconfig (qt4 version). Please see the screenshot in http://personal.inet.fi/cool/l33tmmx/sv-qt4.jpg . In the screenshot there are: qjackctl-0.3.1a (qt4 based), qtconfig and sonic-visualiser. As you can see, the fonts in sonic-visualiser are much larger than the fonts in other applications. (Of course, it's possible that the fonts *may* be hard-coded, but then we must call this 'idiocy' instead of 'bug'...)
do you have any suggestions on how to fix it ?
They do seem to be hardcoded, or at least some increment in size is: #ifdef Q_WS_X11 QFont fn = qApp->font(); fn.setPointSize(fn.pointSize() + 2); qApp->setFont(fn); #endif
Ooo-kay, how / what to change, then? I'm no programmer so I'm depending on you, guys :)
(In reply to comment #3) > Ooo-kay, how / what to change, then? I'm no programmer so I'm depending on you, > guys :) Please send this upstream, it seems it's just using scaled sizes from qtconfig settings, so better ask them if you want to change this; I don't think it is a good thing for distributions to change a package behavior like that.
