Is it possible to set a unique fontsize for only radiobuttons?

Surely this is like putting font declarations in your HTML. I know little about gtk theming but would think you would need a strong reason to override your users theme choice. What happens when they have a customised theme that makes all the text double the size? Will your overidden theme still make sense?

Code: Select all

export GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/local/pburn/gtk/gtkrc-UNIQUE:/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

This will call the standard gtk2-theme in Puppy3 which is defined by the file /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc. My changes for Pburn will override the original, but still use the original settings when not specified in /usr/local/pburn/gtk/gtkrc-UNIQUE. I made the radiobutton look like a flame (relax, it was just for fun). But what I want to do is making radiobutton-text bold and larger, since this is the most important option in the burning process. To prevent large text in preferences-dialog, just reset gtk by running 'export GTK2_RC_FILES=/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc'

Hope this explain my idea

not shure about the font-size.
But you can change the size of the checkbox.

In your theme, add one line to the default-style.

Code: Select all

GtkRadioButton::indicator_size = 20

So here it looks like this:

Code: Select all

style "default"
{
GtkRadioButton::indicator_size = 20


  bg[SELECTED] = "#336699"
  base[SELECTED] = "#336699"
  base[INSENSITIVE] = "#336699"
  base[ACTIVE] = "#336699"

ok, the font:

In your custom theme, add this in the end:

Code: Select all

style "radiobutton" = "default"
{
  font_name = "Sans 20"
}

widget_class "*RadioButton*" style "radiobutton"

You certainly don't need to justify your design decisions to me I was just curious. I look forward to seeing the result.

Mighty MU fixed it again

The gtkrc file gets only info about
- Bold text
- Color of active radiobutton
- radiobutton prelight color

This shouldn't interfere with nearly any gtk-theme. The only I can see; If background is orange.... That's not a very big problem.

Code: Select all

style "default"
{
#GtkRadioButton::indicator_size = 12	#increase if using larger alternative button-image 
}


style "radiobutton" = "default"
{
  font_name = "Sans bold 12"
	fg[ACTIVE]		= "#FF6C00"		#textcolor of chosen burnmode
	fg[PRELIGHT]	= "#B87545"		#textcolor when mouse is over button
}
widget_class "*RadioButton*" style "radiobutton"

Here's the result

Here's next question

Code: Select all

#! /bin/bash
echo 'style "specialmono"
{
	font_name="Mono 20"
	fg[NORMAL]		= "#FF0000"
	base[NORMAL]	= "#333333"
}
class "*" style "specialmono"' > /tmp/gtkrc_mono
export GTK2_RC_FILES=/tmp/gtkrc_mono:/root/.gtkrc-2.0:/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

gtklogfileviewer /var/log/messages "Stop" 0 0 600 350

export p='
<window>
 <edit><input file>/var/log/messages</input></edit>
 <button><label>Stop</label></button>
</window>'
gtkdialog3 --program=p --center

Why doesn't gtkdialog editor-text react on red text setting, and why doesn't gtklogfileviewer react at all on gtk-settings in text-window?

Gtklogfileviewer is using a "TextView" widget.
That has an own, very complicated syntax to use fonts, colours, links, pictures and such.
You might compare that to HTML, but not as easy to set up.
It is somehow like the Gecko engine of Mozilla, an own rendering system, that can not be influenced by standard Gtk-settings.

The font-settings could be set in the sourcecode only.

In main.c around line 300 you see "Courier", here the fontfamily is defined.
Below, there are some colour-definitions.

They are applied further down, around line 370 using "textiters".

Sorry to hear, but thanks for a good answer.

A really fascinating thread! And I liked those screenshots showing what you're doing Zigbert. Really sharp-looking my friend!

It's really neat all these little "extra special looks" that we can do with Linux to individualize and make even moreso our personal computers truly "our personal computers"!

This was one of the special things I enjoyed about running a Windows shell for years, and what I love most about using Linux.

Keep up the great work Zigbert!
