Odi's astoundingly incomplete notes

The cut W slant of the Liberation Sans typeface

Look at that snippet of my Eclipse Menu bar. Especially the W of the Window menu.

Looks familiar? It's cut off at its left side! It must be a bug in the font metrics of Liberation Sans. So lets work around this.

I'll just use a different default GTK+ font. Edit your ~/.gtkrc-2.0:

style "eclipse"
{
        font_name="Tahoma Sans 8"
}
class "GtkWidget" style "eclipse"

That should do the trick:
