Description Roland Stigge 2004-09-27 13:18:36 UTC 
A Debian user reported the following:

================================================================================
Dia has a font rendering problem in the GUI: Sometimes for no particular
reason some texts in diagram elements become bold/weird/broken, and look
really ugly. When you select the element this font is re-rendered
correctly, and the problem disappears. Example screenshot at:
http://dnsspam.student.utwente.nl/~dehling/dia-bug.png
================================================================================

I can reproduce this.

Apparently problems with font caching. I have never seen such 
misbehaviour with my Freetype free win32 build.
