Affects: gtk+2.0 libgtk2.0-0 (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
When antialiasing is turned off, gtk2 apps often seem to have font
rendering issues in tabs and menus. I don't think I've seen in this in
KDE/Qt apps, but I have seen in in several gtk applications (the Gnome
panel menus, XFCE menus, Epiphany tabs (I'll attach a screenshot)).
This only seems to happen when antialiasing is turned off. I much
prefer to keep my smaller (<16pt) fonts with antialiasing off as it
makes reading easier on my eyes.
I'm not sure if this is a pango/other issue, so I apologize if this was
posted to the wrong package.
