Cel. v1.3.2pre3 font problems

1. Fonts larger than 20 points are missing from the v1.3.2pre3 distribution. It'd be great if they could be included in future distribution kits. I suspect I'm not the only person who likes to use larger lettering.

2. Celestia doesn't calculate the correct line lengths for some of the fonts. The right-side GUI displays sometimes extend past the right edge of the window and are clipped. The example below shows this heppening when these fonts are specified in celestia.cfg:

Code: Select all

  Font       "clean16.txf"
  LabelFont  "cleanbold16.txf"
  TitleFont  "sansbold20.txf"


Note the date/time field in particular.

I'm afraid that the larger fonts will add to much to the package size. How about I just add a comment in celestia.cfg with a link to the place on shatters.net where larger fonts may be downloaded?

As for issue #2, I'll take a look . . . It should be a very simple fix.

Chris,

That'd be great.

Thanks.
