Re: Developing with Gnomecanvas2 + TT question

[Bruno Coudoin <bruno coudoin free fr>]

The fonts are much better looking now thanks to Pango.
You can now create a text using this in your gnome-canvas-item creation:
gnome_canvas_item_new (parent,
                       text, "Hi",
                       gnome_canvas_text_get_type (),"font", "Sans 20",
		       NULL);

Unfortunatly, fonts still do not follow the pixels_per_unit value.
