Not sure what to do here no idea as well. Seamonkey is/was being ported to use the same toolkit as Firefox 2 and 3... maybe the transition is not complete? In any way, I would say this bug is ripe for upstream. any updates here ? This is definitely an upstream thing, nothing we can do here... |
seamonkey (and possibly firefox?) inherits the font name and size set in gtk preferences, or gnome "Appearance" panel for "Application Font". However, it does not inherit the style or weight. If setting a bold italic font for Application Font (i.e. IRIX style), all gnome aware apps will change their menus and buttons to a bold italic font -- except seamonkey, which will change the font and font size, but keep it regular/normal. Workaround: add the following to ~/.mozilla/default/*.slt/chrome/userChrome.css: menubar, menubutton, menulist, menu, menuitem { font-weight: bold !important; font-style: italic !important; }
