Hi. I'm using Archlinux x86_64 and decided to try U++.
I've installed theide-svn and upp-svn from AUR.

I'm using Verdana as my default font with enabled anti-aliasing only for fonts smaller than 7.0pt and bigger than 12.0pt (for fonts between 7.0pt and 12.0pt anti-aliasing is disabled).
I am using KDE System Setings -> Fonts to configure this.

But "TheIDE" and the sample U++ applications I built with it look diferent from the other applications (GTK+ and KDE) - fonts of applications built with U++ are always anti-aliased and for all the other applications are not (with my current settings).

If I disable anti-aliasing completely (with no exclude range) then everything looks fine (all app fonts look the same), but captions in firefox look ugly. If I enable anti-aliasing completely all aps look the same, but I don't want to do this.

This problem presists in KDE-4, Openbox and LXDE.
In XFCE4 everithing looks OK. I don't know why.
Also if I install "gnome-control-center" package and use "gnome-settings-daemon" in Openbox fonts look OK. But I don't want to use gnome-settings-daemon since all the other apps look fine without it and it breaks my current Openbox configuration.

Is there any way to fix this issue?





We are attempting to read the antialiasing info from gtk. It works fine with current version of Ubuntu and gnome desktop.

Direct change would be trivial, the correct detection perhaps more complicated.

The detection code is in CtrlLib/ChGtk line 670, if you would like to try hacking this.

How gtk apps behave in your system?
