Summary0002885: VMA-9.0 > CcLun > Ephemeride: date / time display
DescriptionWhenever I want ro use ephemerides for a specific date / time it is nagging that these are not readlable because the fields for the numers are too small. They won't grow and cannot be resized even when cclun displays full screen, see screen shot.

Apart from this issue, I am full of praise about VMA.
Big thanks to all involved!

Thanks for your reply and the fresh download »virtualmoon_9.0.2_amd64.deb«
Sorry for the delayed answer, I was traveling.

Unfortunately the inconvenience persists, see screenshot. BTW, the "About" dialog popup still shows version "AtLun 9.0".

I wonder if that might have something to do with GTK / Qt frameworks, but I'm completely ignorant about that.

The "About" shows "...Linux-x86_64-gtk2". Checking what's installed in my system (Ubuntu-24.04.3 LTS), this it what "apt search gtk3" and then "apt search gtk2" filtering only the installed(!) packages.

Searching for GTK3 it shows:

... while searching GTK-2 it only shows these:

</code>

Is there anything I could try to narrow the issue and/or trying with GTK2/3 or Qt5/6. GTK3 seem to be dominant in Ubuntu-24.04.x for my eyes while Qt5/6 are probably not relevant for VMA.

Additional information: Launching atlun directly from the shell (terminal) these messages are printed:

<code>
Init OpenGL
Check Acceleration
Check texture size
Texture max: 32768
Check Bumpmap
Driver: NVIDIA CORPORATION NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 4070/PCIE/SSE2
GL_ARB_texture_env_dot3 OK
GL_ARB_fragment_program OK
SetBumpMethod
Check MultiTexture

</code>

I also launched atlun with strace to get a detailed logging of what it does and looks for.

<code>strace atlun 2>&1 | tee >atlun.strace</code>

Output see file attachment "atlun.strace"

Edit: Seems "atlun.strace" didn't appear here after sending it (no error message!) thus I send it again as "atlun.strace.zip" ... it's a pure text file (logging).

OK, so no code error here. This is simply because of the use of a different Gtk theme that add this spacing to the left of the number.

I change the form to increase the size of box. Now it is a bit too large with other theme but this is less important.

Can you try with this version:
