OK, I got the font size fixed! If I change the foreach (at line 3944) in pd.tk from:
foreach i {8 9 10 12 14 16 18 24 30 36} {
to:
foreach i {4 6 8 9 10 12 14 16 18 24} {
The text stays withing the object boxes. Exactly what is happening here I don't know. I have to analyze further to find out what's going on.
Hello,
Hector's fix (or something similar) works for me as well for text boxes -- although the pixel-perfect mapping for me on Fedora 10 seems to be at about .75:
8 -> 6 10 -> 8 12 -> 9 16 -> 12 24 -> 18 36 -> 28
So the question is -- it's easy enough to edit u_main.tk to check if it is using 8.5 and then use the new mapping if so, but is it better to implement the mapping in s_main.c, where the t_fontinfo struct already provides fi_hostfontsize?
In this case it would be easy to make both files check for 8.5 and handle things that way. I can post diffs for either solution.
All the gui object fonts are too large as well. I wonder if these problems are popping up on other tcl/tk apps on these distros -- it would be more satisfying to get to the bottom of the underlying problem than to hack the font mapping.
Thanks,
Matt
Federico figured out something for pd-devel 0.41.4 to actually measure
the font size and use that, its in the fit_font_into_metrics proc:
http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/branches/pd-devel/0.41...
Basically, I think it would be really easy to test for Tcl 8.5 in
u_main.tk then use one of these solutions to adjust the font size to
be correct.

Does this handle fonts for all the iemguis, and for data structures as well?
As it turns out, all the fonts are too large on my system, not just the text object ones.
Thanks,

I think it should, but I don't remember exactly.
