Re: Fonts in Gnome 2.0 Alpha

[Chris Chabot <chabotc reviewboard com>]

Yes, this is now close to my behaviour (after the fix as HP sugestion, which
worked perfect).

When i dont do the gdk use xft=1, then it shows all fonts in the font selector
dialog. However when i turn AA on for gnome2/pango, it shows the short list
of 8 or so fonts (which u described being in your smoother graphics option
in nautilis). 

What gives? AA kills ttf?
