overlapping text (building names)

[Kristin]

The new text of building names is sometimes overlapping when buildings are close to each other (see in the jpeg: woodcutters house - smeltings works).
Version bzr 6727

[Hans Joachim Desserud (hjd)]

Indeed there are some overlapping building names. I wonder whether the new font choice may have had an impact as well.

Also, I guess a complicating factor here is that translations might result in even longer building names in some languages.

Setting to incomplete for bug sweeping.

Immediate fix is to use the narrow font for building names.

Fix for overlapping building names - does this look good?

[SirVer (sirver)]

can we not use a narrower font?

This is the condensed font already. Mixing fontsets is not a good idea, we'd have to completely change fontsets if we want to try to find something narrower.

[GunChleoc (gunchleoc)]

Variant with all building names in condensed font

[GunChleoc (gunchleoc)]

Building names and statistics both condensed

[GunChleoc (gunchleoc)]

Variant without condensed font

[SirVer (sirver)]

i like all condensed best so far.

People on the forum seem to like the condensed - no condensed variant better. So, I made some adjustments to font size. I also change the color for the statistic strings in militarysites - it has always bothered me that they are the same color as the building names.

[GunChleoc (gunchleoc)]

This is how it looks with everything condensed, including the gametime etc.

I like it :)
