[Bug 893174] Re: Ubuntu mono appears larger under precise

 

My initial thought it is:

  11 pt * 96 DPI / 72 == 1320

  however that would give an overlap of ~40 pixels instead of 6 pixels.
It's possible that the 6 pixels are accounted for by non-zero width
borders.

** Also affects: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Summary changed:

- Ubuntu mono appears larger under precise
+ Increased terminal padding under precise: 160 columns no longer fit at 72 point

** Summary changed:

- Increased terminal padding under precise: 160 columns no longer fit at 72 point
+ Increased terminal padding under precise: 160 columns of 8-pixel wide no longer fit at 72 point on 1280 pixel display

Bug description:
  Laptop screen resolution is 1280x800.

  Set gnome-terminal font to Ubuntu Mono 11.

  In Oneiric, I was able to fit two terminals side by side without any
  overlap. In fact, they fit without overlap and without causing the
  launcher to autohide.

  After upgrading to Precise, the terminals now push over into the
  launcher area, causing it to autohide, and even then, they still
  overlap. Notice the terminal on the right, the 'a' in 'achiang' is
  covered up by the terminal on the left.
