Eclipse based RCPs running on Linux KDE and GNOME do not inherit the system's font size. This option is especially useful for people who prefer to have alternate screen settings than the default os setting. The only portion of the RCP that inherits the font settings is the RCP titlebar. This problem is also said to occur on the Eclipse SDK but I cannot verify that. Thank you, Yohannes Tadesse ytadesse@ca.ibm.com
We use the OS fonts in most views and dialogs (i.e. we don't set them). Can you give an example with steps of how this is happening?
Hi Tod, The general steps followed are the following: - Created an RCP - Exported the RCP as a Linux specific RCP product - Launched the RCP in Linux - Noticed that the RCP did not inherit the system font size besides the titlebar I hope the information provided is sufficient, if not, please contact me. Thank you, Yohannes Tadesse ytadesse@ca.ibm.com
Could you attach an example please?
