Description lewisldtran 2020-03-14 23:33:32 UTC
Created attachment 126795 [details]
GTK 2 and GTK 3 app side by side. Both set to Noto Sans 10pt. GTK 3 UI font renders as Noto Sans 11pt

SUMMARY
GTK3+ apps fonts are 1pt too large. Doesn't match Qt or GTK2 font size setting. Removal of GNOME/GTK window settings means you can't adjust for the difference in font size.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open GTK3 app
2. Compare window fonts to regular plasma apps

OBSERVED RESULT
UI fonts are 1pt too large

EXPECTED RESULT
UI fonts are the same

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 lewisldtran 2020-03-14 23:37:19 UTC
Font size can be changed in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini but this is only temporary - font setting changes back on restart
Comment 2 Mikhail Zolotukhin 2020-04-15 11:37:49 UTC
Fonts on your screenshot have equal size. The only thing, that is different is the spacing between characters, which is unrelated to font size. Could you please provide side by side comparison of Qt and GTK3 application fonts?
