Then the hard-coded cantarell could be removed from the default theme Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- shell/+bug/1717453/comments/0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2012-11-13T23:53:58+00:00 Jasper St. Pierre wrote: That's chosen by font-config. I'm not sure how easy it is to hook up to the desktop-font GSetting, considering it has abilities like size and weight: things we typically want to control from the theme ourselves.

I'm willing to work on a fix for this and came up with two ideas: It would be possible to just use sans-serif (set it Cantarell) and let that be changeable via the gnome-tweak-tool. Another alternative would be to use a different alias like "gnome-shell- font-overwrite". This would be unset by default (so that the theme font / Cantarell is used), but could be set by gnome-tweak-tool. What do you think?

However sizes / styles for gnome shell are all done in the CSS, and we just want to set the font-face essentially here, so my +1 is for adding another item/setting for picking the gnome-shell font. One other issue to think about here too is that if a user does set a font that does to override the font in the CSS, any change in the tweak tool will not apply to the gnome-shell theme. Maybe we could recognise this and disable this option if the theme sets something other than sans-serif?

Because right now it isn't possible to set a font from Gtk themes, but from Shell themes. And I think most people want to have the same font for Gtk and the Shell, so I would say it might be a good idea to ignore the font- family option in Shell themes completely and simplify the GNOME Tweak font settings to sans-serif <- GNOME Shell, Gtk Widgets, ... serif <- Default font for web sites monospace <- Terminal and editor font Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- shell/+bug/1717453/comments/7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2017-04-27T19:02:24+00:00 Florian-muellner wrote: *** Bug 781858 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- shell/+bug/1717453/comments/8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2019-04-24T07:24:49+00:00 Daniel van Vugt wrote: Downstream bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1717453 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- shell/+bug/1717453/comments/13 ** Changed in: gnome-shell Status: Unknown => Confirmed ** Changed in: gnome-shell Importance: Unknown => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1717453 Title: Shell menus (panel, dock, window) font size does not match configured interface font size Status in GNOME Shell: Confirmed Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Shell menus (panel, dock, window) font size does not match configured interface font size.
