bigger font size in Rox, how? (SOLVED)

Post by gychang »

Am running BP32 on my old laptop. I need to adjust font size in Rox. I read somewhere .gtkrc-2.0 file can do this. I added gtk-font-name = "DejaVu Sans 20" in the file but the font doesn't get affected.

@gychang :-

Can't really check this ATM, Greg. I'm messing about with the new KLV-"Airedale", and if I leave what I'm in the middle of I shall completely lose track of what I'm doing.

I don't remember off the top of my head if UPupBB uses JWM DeskManager. Even if it doesn't, you should still be able to access the GTK-theme changer GUI. Down the bottom, change the font to what you want, then re-start "X". It's always worked for me.

Mike. ;)

found the answer, edit ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and adjust the line font_name="Sans 11" to the desired font size and reboot.
