Description Stephen Rasku 2002-03-22 16:24:21 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2.1) Gecko/20010901

Description of problem:

Using "Settings | Preferences | Display | Fonts" I can set the Preview Font
(which is actually the header font) and the Subject Header Font but I can't set
the font for the message body.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Running Balsa 1.2.4

How reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  Can't set body font

Expected Results:  Should be able to set body font

Do you mean setting the charset?

Comment 2 Stephen Rasku 2002-05-17 04:06:26 UTC

I mean you can't change anything about the body font.  I can change any aspect
of the font for the Subject: line and the rest of the headers but I can't change
what font is displayed for the message body.

Comment 3 Pawel Salek 2002-05-17 13:15:01 UTC

Changing the font works just fine for me. What is the content of MessageFont
entry in ~/.gnome/balsa? I have for example:
"-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed-*-13-*-*-*-c-*"
Can you try hanging it to, say "fixed"? (You need to quit balsa, make the
change, start balsa again).
Is this a stock RH configuration?

Comment 4 Stephen Rasku 2002-05-18 16:55:49 UTC

 The setting for MessageFont is 
"-schumacher-clean-medium-i-normal-*-12-*-*-*-c-*-iso646.1991-irv". 
 
I changed it to your setting and re-started balsa and the font was changed.  However, 
there should be a way to do this from the GUI.

Comment 5 Bill Nottingham 2002-07-24 00:54:25 UTC

Changing it from the GUI won't be done by RH; this really needs to be done upstream.
