Description Hanno Heinrichs 2015-05-28 11:27:48 UTC
Created attachment 1031211 [details]
Screenshot shows difference in font size.

Description of problem:
After upgrading from F21 to F22 the font in rxvt-unicode is not properly displayed. The font is displayed smaller than in rxvt-unicode on F21 and smaller than in xfontsel on F22. This behavior is at least encountered with the i3 window manager.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
9.21-3.fc21
9.21-3.fc22 

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create ~/.Xresource with following content:
URxvt.font:             xft:Terminus:pixelsize=14:antialias=false
URxvt.boldFont:         xft:Terminus:bold:pixelsize=14:antialias=false

2. Issue commands in home directory:
$ xrdb .Xresources
$ urxvt

3. Compare urxvt terminal with xfontsel output:
-*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*

Actual results:
Font size in urxvt is smaller than in xfontsel.

Expected results:
Font size between urxvt and xfontsel should be equal.

Additional info:
Removing URxvt.font and URxvt.boldFont from .Xresources and adding
*font: -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*
produces the expected result.

Comment 1 Hanno Heinrichs 2015-05-28 18:13:03 UTC
The same behavior is also encountered on F22 using GNOME.

Comment 2 Till Maas 2016-02-17 19:46:39 UTC
Just wondering, is this still a problem in F23?
