#9810: Set font to wqy-microhei does not take effect -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: mshlyn | Owner: pulkomandy Type: bug | Status: in-progress Priority: high | Milestone: R1/beta1 Component: | Version: R1/Development Applications/WebPositive | Keywords: WebPositive font Resolution: | display Blocked By: | Blocking: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: All -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by pulkomandy): The app_server has limited font overlay support. When the selected font lacks a glyph, it will look in the VL Gothic font. This was implemented as a proof of concept, and the Japanese asked first. We should improve app_server to do the font overlay thing at a higher level, and find a single font it can use for drawing the complete string. This would make sure we get coherent results and use a single font for the whole string. fontconfig has support for this and may be used for that purpose. On WebKit side, I merged a patch to improve the font system. However, it seems it's not possible to change fonts in the preferences dialog, I'm now looking into that. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/9810#comment:5> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
