Hi I have been trying to work out how to get Gimp to only show
fonts from the user/fonts file rather than the vast amount of
system fonts can anyone point me at the code section I need to
start mucking about with?
I think you should read the original mail again. Hint: "system fonts not
shown" is not the problem, but the desired outcome.
Ah, thanks for the hint. I have accidentally read a "not" into the original mail, thus it became "to get Gimp to *not* only show fonts from the user/fonts file"
The configuration to check is the fonconfig settings then, for example the the global, system-wide fonts.conf file. It may contain references to the global font directories, for example
/usr/share/fonts
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts
(taken from http://www.freedesktop.org/software/fontconfig/fontconfig-user.html)
If you comment those out, then you can (and have to) add all font directories in GIMP's settings, for example.
HTH,
Michael
