FVWM: Changing font.........
Hello, I don't know anything about FVWM and not certain this is the correct place to ask this question. Running Debian Squeeze On some application windows, toolbar menu, drop down menus, there are some very ugly looking half hearted fonts. In particular two that come to mind LyX and Kalarm. Yet on other programs and apps they are alright. Is this a thing that can be fixed by FVWM or is this an individual program application problem? The actual name of the window of the program like Lyx looks fine, though a different font family could make it look more attractive. In my ~/.fvwm there is this: DestroyFunc FuncFvwmSetFont-WindowTitle AddToFunc FuncFvwmSetFont-WindowTitle + I Style "$0" Font "$1" But I have no idea what the font "$1" is at all? Thanks for any help to get this into my head. Charlie -- Registered Linux User:- 329524 . I embrace emerging experience. I participate in discovery. I am a butterfly. I am not a butterfly collector.

That's down to the application, and hence your Qt/GTK settings in this case. FVWM only controls the fonts for the reparented window -- so things like the font in the window titlebar, your own menus created with FVWM, etc. > some very ugly looking half hearted fonts.

Examples would be: FuncFvwmSetFont-WindowTitle XTerm Fixed But as I said earlier, that part of the window is controlled by FVWM, and FVWM is not responsible for what fonts the actual application uses. -- Thomas Adam
