Description of Problem: Due to the slanted font, the last letter of the host name, "l" in my case, is cut off at the right side of the hostname, which looks bad. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.0.7-3 How Reproducible: Having a hostname ending on "l", for example.
we could just go to non-italic perhaps.
I tried an even simpler solution: just add one space on both sides of the text. This seems to work fine! In Bluecurve.xml I now have <text> Welcome to %h </text> and it now looks ok!
A theme bug really, moving to redhat-artwork
Yuck, we can't add the spaces because it will change the string and lose all translations of this text.
Wait, there's massive space around the "welcome to hostname" string - do you have 800x600, or the world's longest hostname? ;-)
No, the string is cut off at at the right near to the baseline of the string. Try yourself. I don't know why either... And all translations seem to be in the file itself, so adding spaces to each of them will solve the problem.
