Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 101659
Fractional GTK UI font size is rounded down to an integer
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:33:15 UTC
gnome-appearance-properties (System → Preferences → Appearance) allows you to configure a non-integer font size; on my system, I use 7.5pt. But OpenOffice.org applications round this down to 7pt, so all UI components end up looking too small. Looking at GtkSalGraphics::updateSettings, vcl/unx/gtk/gdi/salnativewidgets-gtk.cxx, int nPointSize is computed from nPangoHeight (which is in units of 1/1024 pt) using nPointHeight = nPangoHeight/PANGO_SCALE; and stored into a Size object as a long. Probably the Font class should be redefined to store its size in smaller units than pt.
@ pl: Something for you?
confirm
assign to the font master general
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
