pietro10Is there a way I can find out what a  GTK+ and a KDE program see as the fontconfig? so I can figure out why my GTK+ programs use different font rendering in the absence of fonts.conf - http://imgur.com/dyfjNcz (GTK left, KDE right) - Thanks.02:13
pietro10Is there any other place (or another network?) where I can go to get help with my gtk+ apps on kde font problem if no one here knows?03:33
glitsj16pietro10: looking at your screenshot i'm wondering if you have the same settings for antialiasing and hinting in gtk+/kde?04:39
pietro10glitsj16: I think that's the problem04:58
pietro10I don't know what the settings are though, because I have no fonts.conf04:59
pietro10this is coming out of a fresh install05:00
glitsj16pietro10: i'm not familiar with KDE's way of setting the antialiasing/hinting, but for GTK apps you can use something like gnome-tweak-tool to set that up, fonts.conf shouldn't be the issue05:01
glitsj16pietro10: do you have a setting for fonts/appearance in KDE?05:01
glitsj16pietro10: i mean, a way to check them, systemsettings perhaps?05:02
pietro10yes - but opening that created a fonts.conf that resulted in the kde programs looking like the GTK programs05:02
glitsj16pietro10: what are the settings there for hinting/antialiasing?05:04
pietro10"System settings"05:06
glitsj16pietro10: that's it? i was expecting something like antialiasing-->true .. subpixel-hinting-->rgba .. hinting-->slight (or other values, but no sight of antialiasing, hinting etc?)05:09
pietro10not with System settings05:10
pietro10if I change the option then 'm able to set up fone-tuned options05:10
glitsj16is this a ubuntu or kubuntu btw?05:10
pietro10kubuntu; #kubuntu+1 just redirected me here (and I have tried asking in #kubuntu but to no avail)05:11
glitsj16pietro10: well, i'd try installing gnome-tweak-tool and set font appearance there, or you can use dconf-editor to look for the keys and do it without installing anything, i don't think the tweak tool will install lots of dependencies that you don't need/like, but better check05:13
glitsj16pietro10: would be interesting to see your fonts.conf, can you pastebin that please?05:23
pietro10well I built a fonts.conf that caused fc-match to produce the same output as it did before; now I just have to make sure KDE programs stay the same... next time I reboot; until then, thanks anyway09:57
