[Bug 508783] Re: Complex fonts are not displayed properly

 

I switched all text drawing to pango layouts, could you please give it a
try and see if you encounter any of the same issues now? If you do I
will have to make a few more adjustments, but the switch to pango was
for the best.

Bug description:
When using gnome-activity journal trunk build, Bangla complex characters do not appear properly. They appear broken.
In some asian languages, combination of two or more characters is represented as a new glyph. In gnome-activity journal, they are not showing up correctly, and individual characters are shown. In default gnome, these characters work without problem.

See the attached screenshot. While the representation of weekday names in gnome shell calender is alright, gnome-activity shows them incorrectly. One instance is marked in red.
