Re: Re: Update on problem with text on plots -- very tiny characters?

	Adrian,

	I've been trying to reproduce this problem in testgtkplot, and have not
been able to do so.  When I copy the exact call to gtk_plot_put_text
from my code in to testgtkplot.c, it works.  I'm not using rotated text,
I have the coordinates correct (<= 1.0), and I'm using a common font
(Times-BoldItalic).  I'll keep trying to get you code that can reproduce
this (my entire project is not reasonable to send, it has lots of
external dependencies and would drive you nuts trying to get built).

	However, I have another couple questions to help me debug it:

- I know that you did a lot with integrating pango under the hood of
gtkextra-2.  I have pango 1.2 on my system -- does your code require a
newer pango than this?

- Another clue: This problem is affecting *all* the text on the plot,
not just text I put up with gtk_plot_put_text.  The axis titles and tick
labels are also very small 1 or 2 pixel spots on the plot.  Whatever the
problem is, it doesn't seem to be related to how text is added to the
plot, it seems more related to how text is rendered on the plot, because
it affects all text.  Any further guesses with that info?  I've attached
a screenshot that shows this.

	All help, thoughts, guesses appreciated!  If/when I get a small set of
code that can reproduce this, I'll send it along.  In the meantime,
please let me know if there is additional info that would help you
determine what's happening.
	
	Thanks!

-Al
