If log out/log in is required for the changes to take effect, shouldn't the user be informed of this? I can not see why this should be expected. Why should the user expect that the changes does not take effect immediately? > B. When the text in the window title bar is grown, how do you > keep the window from being pushed off the screen?

I have not done anything special to prevent windows from being pushed off the screen. I use a 15" laptop monitor on a Thinkpad T61p running at 1920x1200... Is this information of any help? > D. Again, "log out/log" in will correct this issue. Again, I cannot see why the user should not be informed of this? Also, I cannot really see why it should not be considered a usability bug, that the user cannot change font size without logging out and logging in again? > The second screen dump shows a web page. If the page is > fixed, the desktop is not going to affect it. The second screen dump does not only show a web page. It also illustrates a bug with icons in Firefox. Please look at "B". This is not related to a web page. Maybe I should clarify what I mean by "A" in the second screen dump. I am aware that changing desktop font size does not affect the web page. However, the form elements in the web page is apparently affected by the font size change. So, I think that the web page should be designed to handle this. This should be possible. I understand that the customized Google search page is a developed by the Ubuntu team, so I think it is fair to report it as a bug here. I also think that this is not a completely minor bug, considering that this web page is the first web page a first-time user sees when she opens Firefox. -- GUI/Usability bug: UI in Xubuntu cannot handle large font sizes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349879 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
