Change font size does not work (change font type neither) #9

Open ghost opened 11 years ago

ghost commented 11 years ago

Fedora 15 Labyrinth 0.6 The font size of the nodes and the extended attribute pane does not change on my system. I can set a larger font size I can set a different font type The setting are ignored by the application

I can get it to change the font, sometimes, if I go into a thought and select some text, but then it becomes very slow to respond. The text rendering stuff is relatively complicated, and I don't have time to figure out how it all works. If you've got time to dig into it, go for it.

Are you using Gnome. I am using XFCE. it first complained about gconf-editor, but I think that's a Gnome thing. It finally works randomly on my system when I launch labyrinth from my home dir. It does not work when I launch it from its default location /usr/bin/labyrinth. Effectively it becomes very slow to respond. I will see if I have any more luck when I update my system to Fedora 19?

By the way I read that Labyrinth 0.6 could export to .svg and .pdf, but the only format I can export to it .png (it's like version 0.4). Do you have an idea (extra-dependencies to install)?

That's what I get when I launch it from the the terminal. Is there a debug command?

I'm using Unity, which is Gnome based as far as apps are concerned.

The SVG and PDF export are done by cairo. That may need extra dependencies, but I don't know which. What happens if you try to export to svg or pdf?

Thanks for the feedback. Your are right, it works fine (svg/pdf) when I rename the file name with the correct extension. I was looking for a menu entry.

takluyver commented 11 years ago

The list of formats on the export dialog does list pdf and svg. There's a small bug in that it should automatically change the filename when you select a different format.

I see. I did selected the different formats, but it had no effect on the file name. Thanks to your comments, I know why. I like this software :)
