Subject: bug#2476: 23.0.90; menu-set-font produces bold oblique font
Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2009 00:43:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87r61mhykv.fsf@escher.local.home> (raw)
1. emacs -Q
2. Sanity check:
a. Typing `C-u C-x =' on a character shows this font:
xft:-unknown-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
(I have this in ~/.Xresources:
Emacs.FontBackend: xft
Emacs.Font: DejaVu Sans Mono-10)
b. Move the mouse pointer over a tool bar icon or the mode line until
a tooltip is displayed, and observe that it has it normal face
(variable-pitch, normal weight and slant).
3. Click on the menu bar entry Options->Set Default Font... In my GTK+
build this opens a "Pick a font" dialog, showing Family: DejaVu Sans
Mono, Style: Book, Size: 10.
4. Change at least one of the font attributes family or size,
e.g. change size to 9 (but leave the style unchanged).
5. I now observe the following:
a. Typing `C-u C-x =' on a character shows this font:
xft:-unknown-DejaVu Sans Mono-bold-oblique-normal-*-11-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
The characters in this frame are indeed smaller, yet they still
show normal weight and slant; however
b. all the characters in tooltips show bold weight and oblique slant,
and
c. Typing `C-x 5 2' creates a frame in which all the characters show
bold weight and oblique slant, in the buffer as well as in
tooltips.
I observe this behavior also with emacs -Q -xrm 'Emacs.FontBackend: x'
