[REBOL] Re: Fonts in R/view

Thanks, Cyphre.
As I said, I looked into those previous threads. Obviously, I didn't test
your little hack thoroughly enough. I testet it again just now, but found
some strange results.
This time, I copied your complete block of proposed font changes into my
user.r file, and found some of the settings affected the fonts, others not,
and the different settings affected different parts of the view startup
screen:
- The size setting affected the menu line (User / Goto / Help / Quit), the
information text in the middle (everything but "Welcome to REBOL/View") and
Connected to the Internet at...
at the bottom.
- Align affected the red text with user information (not the black
counterparts) and "Connected to the Internet..."
- Color affected the menu line and the little word "View" in the bottom
left corner
- Valign, finally, affected the texts I wanted to change, "REBOL.com",
Local
and "Console" in the navigation bar to the left, as well as the
text behind the icons in the main window once one starts to navigate.
I leaned back and gave it a though. Of course: your script is manipulating
the default font! (Of course, of course, since that was indeed its
mission.) So it really only affects the _base_ for the fonts in the R/View
startup screen, and I need to change the _used_ fonts. I probed around a
bit in the system/view object, but I'm not that familiar with it, so I
didn't find anything.
Does anyone know the path to the fonts in the navigation bar to the left?
And will I be able to change it from the user.r script? Any ideas welcome.
