Description Matthias Clasen 2013-02-11 00:44:11 UTC

I had a quick play with fonts-tweak-tool - here are some suggestions:

- Set a window title - currently, it just has 'fonts-tweak-tool', which is not great.

- Same goes for the dialogs. 

- Inline toolbars. The +/- buttons below your lists would look much nicer if they had the same appearance as the 'inline toolbars' in the control-center. This is a little fiddly to set up; I am happy to assist with that - or ask Cosimo.

- The lists should not change their width depending on their content - better to make them wide enough and ellipsize overly wide items.

- Section headings need have some more padding above them

- Font Aliases:
  - Should not have a . in the checkbox labels
  - The combo boxes are too dominant; should not stretch them all across
  - Bad baseline alignment between the "Sample:" label and the sample text

- Font Properties:
  - Drop the 'the' in 'Use the sub-pixel rendering'
  - The spacing of the three options in the Hinting section is not even

Hmm, I thought it is done by the theme right? or do I need to do something in the code? I'm willing to have similar looks though, just wonder if it can be kept on non-GNOME desktops as well or can be specific for GNOME. for instance the symbolic icons isn't usually available on non-GNOME desktops unless requiring gnome-icon-theme-symbolic explicitly. I have a hack in fonts-tweak-tool to get rid of '-symbolic' from the icon name to avoid empty icons.

One more question...

How can this be done without having vertical scrollbar? or should I have one?

No worries. I managed to get this done it seems.
