SciDAVis / SciDAVis Bugs / #354 Fonts in plots are 1 pt lower than that defined in preferences

gbm - 2018-10-22

To avoid this bug you can uncheck the "Scale Fonts" button in the Edit/Preferences/2D Plots/Options panel before creating the 2D plot windows.
Alternatively, apply the attached patch that circumvents the bug.

Hi Miquel - did you ever get to the bottom of why we were either getting a resize event with a less than unity scale factor, or that setting and resetting the font point size would decrease the the value? Your solution here looks like a workaround of a bug elsewhere in the system.

Yes, there is a bug elsewhere.
The graph window generates/receives a resize event when the constructor has already ended.
At that point the autoScaleFonts boolean, disabled in constructor, is active again.
The patch just reverts in the constructor the font resize that comes after the constructor.
Until the real bug is found, the patch makes a reasonable workaround.

  Se está meio cheio ou meio vazio é uma questão de ponto de vista. Mas o fato é que está pela metade.

  The fonts in 2D plots - Title, Legend, Axes labels and Axes numbers - are 1 pt lower than that defined in Edit -> Preferences -> 2D Plots -> Fonts
  This happens only for new SciDAVis installations, i. e., if SciDAVis.conf file is that generated in 1st run. Due to this reason, I don't know if it is a bug in beta (1.23.2) or an old one.
  In 3D plots the fonts looks ok.
  
  I'm sorry for the poor description and lack of details. I'm very busy these days...
