Openoffice and GTK integration

I got a shock today! I updated my system a couple of days ago to OOo 3.1.0 Archlinux build2. I was previously running 3.somthing

I fired OOo just today to discover that it looked good!  Well it seems that the fonts match well now(size and shape) with the gtk2 enabled font.

Anyone noticed that, or I'm I crazy??

I have the same version but it looks pretty much the same to me, I think.

OO.o still shows problems with the font rendering of my GNOME desktop.

Re: Openoffice and GTK integration

I ran OO.o the other day (yes , I need it rarely) & I was shocked because I lost GTK integration when I moved to go-oo .

Re: Openoffice and GTK integration

It used to look quite bad with dark gtk themes, I wonder if that has been fixed. Still I prefer Abiword/Gnumeric for the speed and clean interface, even though Abiword has much less features compared to Oo Writer.

Re: Openoffice and GTK integration

The dark themes thing is not fixed, but the AUR has this openoffice-dark-gtk-fix package which helps. Its basically just a script to modify the OO launch scripts, so you'll need to reinstall/re-run it every time OO is installed/updated.
