[Xastir] Font size for station and station names

[Joseph LaFerla]

Hi

I am looking for a font size that can make the stations and station names bigger because they are too small for my eyes!  I came across Curt’s suggestion in an earlier post which I reproduce below:

MAPS_LABEL_FONT_TINY:-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
 MAPS_LABEL_FONT_SMALL:-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
 MAPS_LABEL_FONT_MEDIUM:-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
 MAPS_LABEL_FONT_LARGE:-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--24-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
 MAPS_LABEL_FONT_HUGE:-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--24-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
 MAPS_LABEL_FONT_BORDER:-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
 SYSTEM_FIXED_FONT:fixed
 STATION_FONT:fixed
 ATV_ID_FONT:-*-helvetica-*-*-*-*-*-240-*-*-*-*-*-*

My FONT_TINY was size 8 and FONT_SMALL was size 10, which I changed to match Curt’s.  I changed mine to exactly like his by editing the xastir.cnf file in .xastir but there was no apparent difference.  I am wondering if the appropriate font is STATION_FONT but I don’t want to change it for fear of breaking something.

Could someone advise what setting I should use to make those items bigger and should it be changed from fixed to adobe-helvetica…..

Thanks.
