I am using Squeak 3.10.2 on Ubuntu 9.04 (Linux)
I reported problems with fonts earlier.
Andreas Raab told me how to set the font of my text (thanks Andreas Raab)
which I have done.
However I still have two problems:
1) I am setting color attributes to text which I see correctly.
I am also modifying the display of some of the characters
between 128 and 155 for use in displaying trees.
However, I often do not see the changes I make to the characters
and see instead the original accented characters for the characters
I have changed (such as character 225).
I have several times at this point perused the Internet for a while using
Firefox. When I return I sometimes see that my special characters are
now correctly displayed. Note this refers to text that I have
already displayed
on a workspace. Even though I am not redisplaying it the fact
that I am switching
from one X-windows window to another causes the correction to
occur. Note also
that in Ubunutu I have two completely different screens to choose
from and I
have Squeak running in one and Firefox running in the other.
Only one is displayed
at a time and the correction occurs when I switch from the screen
containing Firefox
and the screen containing Squeak. This has occurred three times
now so it is
partially repeatable. I do not know what I have to do on the Internet to
cause this affect.
I am assuming that X-windows needs some buffer flushed and Firefox is
doing it but Squeak is not. That is there is a bug in Squeak (or Ubuntu
or X-windows) somewhere.
Any suggestions as to what the problem is? A fix?
2) I need a fixed font for displaying my trees so I used
(TextStyle named: 'DefaultFixedTextStyle') fontOfPointSize: 11.
The problem is this font is not quite fixed although it is better than
the fonts I used previously. Is there a truly fixed font I can use?
