Change font and font size in Fluxbox

In Fluxbox 1.1 a font and a font size can be changed by editing a overlay file, usually located in ~/.fluxbox/. So just add the following lines to this file and restart fluxboxmenu.title.font: sans-12:bold
menu.frame.font: sans-12:bold
toolbar.clock.font: sans-10:bold
toolbar.workspace.font: sans-12:bold
*font: sans-12
Of course you have to select the font you like or the size.

  2. Thank you. I love it when I can just get to the facts, rather than wading through the mud first!

  3. Hi there! The smaller font under each word tells the actual name of the font. The "sparkling" one is called Sweet Pea font and the link is:

    Thanks!
