Re: bold in labels?

[John Sullivan <sullivan eazel com>]

Nautilus has some code to make the font of a GtkLabel bold. The entry point
is nautilus_gtk_label_make_bold () in
libnautilus-extensions/nautilus-gtk-extensions.c. It wasn't trivial to make
this work reliably with the full range of possible fonts, but I think it is
pretty robust now.

I don't believe there's any way to use multiple styles (e.g. some bold text,
some non-bold text) in a single GtkLabel.
