Font size can not be changed in 3.0.6 gtk

You can get help here if Freeciv doesn't start on your computer, or if you keep getting fatal errors while playing etc.

Font size can not be changed in 3.0.6 gtk

Post by kur-ka »

Local client font settings in are stored in

Code: Select all

~/.freeciv/freeciv-client/rc-3.0
but font sizes are not observed, neither in the main program window nor in help. Surprisingly font names are observed and applied immediately. See attached full screenshot.

This appears in the arch repository version community/freeciv 3.0.6-1 using gui-gtk-3.0.

Code: Select all

$ inxi -Sxz
System:
  Kernel: 6.1.12-artix1-1 arch: x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 12.2.1
    Desktop: KDE Plasma v: 5.27.1 Distro: Artix Linux base: Arch Linux
My home directory contains gtk 3.0 i 4.0 config files, but none of them contains font size settings. In the files below I can not see any font size settings as the they contain mostly color settings, but can provide them if anyone interested.

Code: Select all

$ ls ~/.config/gtk-3.0/
assets  colors.css  gtk.css  settings.ini  window_decorations.css

One thing is that Arch should really switch to the default, and better supported, gtk3.22-client. I think it (along its derivatives) is the last remaining major distro still using gtk3-client.
