 Posted: Sun Jan 31, 2010 9:01 pm Post subject: Chromium location bar's font too big [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I recently moved from KDE 4 to Openbox. When I did, a lot of fonts were too big, so I had to make them smaller to fix that (for example, I have the standard font size set to 8 in obconf). One of the few applications in which I haven't been able to fix the font size is Chromium. The location bar (and tab bar) text is still larger than it should be. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks!

Not sure if this will will help as I use gnome but for specific Chromium fonts here is mine;
~/.config/chromium/Default/Preferences
| Code: |
"webkit": {
"webprefs": {
"default_fixed_font_size": 17,
"default_font_size": 17,
"fixed_font_family": "DejaVu Sans Mono",
"inspector_settings": "lastActivePanel:string:storage\n",
"minimum_font_size": 16,
"minimum_logical_font_size": 16,
"sansserif_font_family": "DejaVu Sans",
"serif_font_family": "DejaVu Serif"
}
}

Do you have a ~/.fonts.conf

I tried changing the font sizes (default_font_size and default_fixed_font_size, those were the only ones there). They were 14 and 16; I made them 12 and 12, and nothing changed.
Changing that bool to false only made the fonts worse - the letters became thicker and more blurry.

I managed to fix it by manually setting the DPI in my X launch command. I did this in /etc/slim.conf: | Code: | | xserver_arguments -nolisten tcp -br -deferglyphs 16 -dpi 96 |
After that, I was able to change all the system fonts back to 10 (from 8) and 9 (from 7), and Chrome (and Mathematica, which had a similar "font too big" problem) is using the correct size font now.
