Summary: LogPixels registry value is ignored by some fonts
Product: Wine
Version: 0.9.3.
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: P2
Component: wine-gui
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: jpetso at gmx.at
I've got a 1400x1050 screen which displays the standard fonts far too small.
There is the LogPixels registry setting which is supposed to scale the fonts
according to its value. This works fine for some fonts (for example, the
regedit "Edit String/DWORD" dialog, or the font selection dialog) but ignores
other important ones, namely the menu fonts, the message dialog fonts, and the
ones used in the regedit listboxes. (Maybe a few more, can't check with other
programs at the moment.) Those fonts can be replaced by modifying values in
the FontSubstitutes registry key, but the size stays the same anyways.
The menu fonts can be changed by a workaround entry in win.ini, but the other
ones seem fixed. If that font sizes can't be increased, I can't use wine
seriously as a Windows replacement - please do something about it! (It's
essential to migrate my mom ;-)
