Re: pspp gtk3 mswindows

Btw:

If I run a Histogram and view its output I get:

(PSPPIRE.exe:2288): Pango-WARNING **: couldn't load font "sans serif Not-Rotated  22.5px", falling back to "Sans Not-Rotated 22.5px", expect ugly output.

(PSPPIRE.exe:2288): Pango-WARNING **: couldn't load font "sans serif Not-Rotated  15px", falling back to "Sans Not-Rotated 15px", expect ugly output.

But the ouput is not ugly so I can live with that.

Have fun

Hi Ben

You are right. I managed to get it switched on. And this is much better.

See the attachement.

This seems acceptable to me. Is this the same on other platforms too?

Have fun

     It looks like gtk3 doesn't have font antialiasing turned on.

That may be part of the problem.  But even the horizontal and vertical lines are very much
less black than the Gtk2 version - antialiasing would not affect that.

I suspect that the Gtk3 build has got a different text forground colour in its style -
either because we haven't ported it properly - or because the Gtk devs decided to change the default.

Styles in Gtk3 are done a completely different way, which I haven't fully understood yet.
I need to read up on it.

Unfortunately good tutorial documentation is few and far between.
