Description

Debian amd64, QT 4.4.0, SVN r9254.

The old issue with fonts in map composer strikes back. See the attached screendump. The font for "Legenda" is supposedly Arial 24. Obviously something's wrong.

History

#1 Updated by Marco Hugentobler about 16 years ago

Seems that I have to apply Stevens font bug workaround in new composer.

#2 Updated by Maciej Sieczka - about 16 years ago

Not sure if the same issue. Looks related though:

Sans Serif font (the default in legend, scalebar etc.) is always rendered blocky (both in the output and the composer itself), like if it was rasterized. Changing the font to any other fixes that. Changing it back to Sans Serif brings the issue back.

Does cde4f741 (SVN r9266) fix these issues?

Replying to [comment:3 mhugent]:

Seems fixed. A new issue - I can't change the Sans Serif font size (other font properties change OK though). All other fonts chnage their size OK. Weird.

#5 Updated by Marco Hugentobler almost 16 years ago

This sounds strange. I tested with current svn head (dcaaea9f (SVN r9749)) and Qt 4.4.2 and changing the sans serif font size worked. I tested that with composer label, composer legend and composer scalebar.
Please test if this bug is still present for you.
