GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 100012
Support setting attributes on GtkLabel
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
The only way to do bold labels right now seems to be markup with <b>; translators don't like markup much, and it's less efficient. This makes HIG compliance kind of a pain. Glade should support the "attributes" property of GtkLabel. Doesn't have to support all possible attributes, just a checkbox for bold/notbold would cover the main use-case.
There are some more types of markup that are used frequently, such as <span size=\"small\"></span>, <small></small>, <i></i>, <span weight=\"bold\"></bold>, <span size=\"larger\"></span>, etc. See bug 97061 for bug links to many examples in the "blocks" section.
Looks like this is just a dup. To fix gnome-terminal etc. for UI review, I really need to use markup for now, until glade has this feature. Hopefully it won't be too annoying for translators. :-/ *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 97061 ***
