GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 312290
Text Formatting
Last modified: 2008-01-15 12:58:29 UTC
I would like the text tool to have options for bold, italics and underline.
I would like you to check for duplicates before filing a bug report. Thank you.b *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 122706 ***
"312290: Text Formatting" is not a duplicate of "122706: Text: no multiple styles" because "122706: Text: no multiple styles" is requesting multiple already existent text tool capabilites to be used in the same text layer. I suppose "312290: Text Formatting" is the same as "307985: Bold text without a bold version of the font". However, I wouldn't have requested this enhancement if at the time I wasn't under the false impression that True Type Fonts already had the bold, underline, italics information encoded within them.
Well, your initial comment to bug 312290 (this is the way to reference other bugs, btw, as Bugzilla automatically transforms it into a link) was pretty short, so we had to guess what you were writing about.
