Hi, i've seen that fonts used by upp are a bit bigger compared to default system fonts used by other applications. This problem exist also in Ubuntu but there it isn't so visible as on Debian - the font used by upp gui differ from font used by other native applications. Shouldn't we use the same font as native applications?
Or is that related to font rendering as Upp use Xft* function to render fonts and gtk+ use Pango/Cairo for that?
index.php?t=getfile&id=1463&private=0

[note: firefox do font rendering correctly Razz

, which api use it?]

The relevant code sequence starts at

CtrlLib/ChGtk.cpp 615

and ends with Draw::SetStdFont line.

We are trying to read the standard font from Gnome there.

Maybe a couple of DUMPs there would reveal the problem. Of course, crosschecking with mozilla code is possible too...

Koldo, is there anything in that Portland xdgutils project that could help us out here finding the correct font size?

Actually, see the pointed code. There is a lot that can be read from GTK. My guess is that we are now interpreting some data badly...
