GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 153249
Apply Font becomes inactive
Last modified: 2005-07-21 16:09:16 UTC
Launch gnome-theme-manager (control-center 2.8.0). Here select a theme that suggests a font which is different from the font currently being used. Most likely "Large Print" is a good choice. Click on "Apply Font". The font changes correctly, but this button becomes inactive and hence even if I choose another theme, I cannot accepts the suggested font of that one. I have to restart gnome-theme-manager to do it. Please note that the bug only occurs if the "Apply Font" button really changes the font, that is, if the suggested font is the same as the one currently being used then the "Apply Font" button does the correct job, it remains active.
I was able to verify that clicking the "Apply Font" button made it go inactive, however none of the other stock themes suggested a different font so I couldn't verify whether or not the button becomes active again. I had to use "gnome-font-properties" to get my font back to "Sans 10". This is almost certainly a duplicate of bug 104913. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 104913 ***
