Re: Larger Font in LXDE Menus, and Libre Office Menus
Welcome to the LXDE forum.
To change the font that window text appears in, you will have to look in different places for different windows.
Use the LXDE preference menu to Open "Openbox Configuration Manager" , click "Appearance" tab.
Right click on the bottom panel and select "Panel Settings" to change the panel font size
Use the LXDE preferences menu to open "Customize Look and Feel". Click the Widget tab.
I believe you change the default fonts in LibreOffice in "Options".

this would change the font size for all gtk2/3 elements.
to change the font size for only particular parts of your user interface, you have to get into gtk theming (i suggest you look into gtk+ 2.x first).

Could you explain a bit about "LXDE menus"? What exactly do you mean by that?coder25 wrote:How can a larger font be obtained for LXDE menus and Libre Office menus? Thanks.
Rex has mentioned the various ways font size can be modified. More detail can be provided depending on what exactly you want.
If you want to increase the font size of the menu and submenu in LibreOffice alone and not in other applications, that too is possible. Check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php? ... st13176861. Although it deals with LibreOffice Calc, you should be able to use it for any LibreOffice application. The code below affects only the font size of the LibreOffice menu and not the font size in any "child" windows such as those that open when you click Tools > Options.
You could have something like this:
Code: Select all
include '/path/to/your/theme/gtk-2.0/gtkrc'
style "larger-font" {
font_name = "Ubuntu Mono 12"
}
widget_class "*" style "larger-font"
