Changing Font Size does not work

[neli]

For most of the themes, including Win7 (Small).

Why and is there a fix possible (or improvement for future versions)?

It would help to reduce the size of the icon.

Other than that, it seems a reliable product (still trying it)

Thank you.

The font size setting in Preferences only affects toolbars that don't define the font explicitly in the theme configuration file. The reason for that is that it allows a theme to define the font, size, and style (like the MioBar).

I think that I should go back and remove the font definitions from all the themes except the ones where I want a specific font.

You can do it yourself now by opening the Themes folder, then opening the Win7Bar folder and editing the theme-small.xml file. Remove the whole section that starts with <Font> and ends with </Font>.

The font change works for xpbar or vista only.

I tried your tip already (I analyzed the differences between the "working" and "non-working" theme file) but it doesn't work.

Even after updating the theme-small.xml, like you said, it doesn't change anything. I reloaded the bar also to no avail.

Still doesn't work. To help you figure out the issue : the font and text is resized properly only when Battery is fully charged and on A/C. When I unplug my power adapter, the text grows bigger (seems to use a default font instead of the one I specified).

Are you able to reproduce this issue or not ?

[Chris]

There are multiple entries for <Font> in the theme file. You'll need to remove all references to the font. As I said, I'll edit all the themes to remove the preset fonts except in the two themes where I explicitly state a smaller font (Battery and MioBar)

It resolved the issue, thank you Chris. Yes, it would be a nice addition to edit all the themes files for the next release and to save time.
