Description Patrick Wade 2003-10-23 13:56:24 UTC 
- Launch Gnome-About

Take note of the font sizes.

-Change the theme "HighContrastLargePrintInverse" and the application font
to "Sans 28"

See that the text in Gnome-About did not pick up these changes.

- Exit and relaunch Gnome-About

The font size is now the expected much larger size.

gnome-about has been rewritten in python and doesn't use a canvas anymore. This bug is fixed now. See bug 481585 for more details.

(there's still a bug: the dialog should be resized, but it's not)
