I just installed 1.5.2 and am having horrible font problems. I
understand that there's a new pixmap cache scheme, but it seems to be
broken when you change the Zoom on Screen fonts. It adjusts the spacing
appopriately, but not actual characters. So, when you increase the zoom,
you still have small characters but they're spaced far apart.
Conversely, when you decrease the zoom, the characters are on top on one
another.
I created a brand new preferences file and folder and this didn't solve
the problem.
On the other hand, when you quit the program and start it up, it's ok.
But currently you can never change the zoom and expect it to behave
properly without restarting.
This bug will be fixed in 1.5.3. FYI, it was not just about the pixmap
cache but also the font metrics cache.
