[Bug 1465340] [NEW] Unity Radiance Menu Bar Should Stop Radiating

 

Public bug reported:

This bug has been there for at least three years.

The font anti aliasing in the menu bar is completely off when the user
chooses the Radiance theme. The attached screen shot shows a Firefox
menu on top of an Emacs session. You see the unity menu bar at the top
with the distorted anti aliasing. Under it in the pop-up menu you see a
font rendered normally which looks much better.

In addition to the distorted anti aliasing the menu bar does not seem to
respect the user settings in "~/.fonts.conf".

Please fix this and alter the name of Radiance to "Bright". Stop the
menu bar from radiating with Radiance.
