Where does Wine store the Font settings?

Post by Bamm »

Hello,

Using winecfg, I changed the Font settings in Desktop Integration. It works and shows up in wine applications.

When I search the registry using regedit or by searching the .reg files at the root of the wine prefix, the custom Font settings don't appear. I guess it isn't stored in the registry, or is it? If not, where is it stored?

Thanks for any info. :)

You might be searching for the wrong words. Or in the wrong wineprefix.

What exact settings have you changed?

In winecfg, clicked on Desktop Integration, and changed the fonts. Let's say, I chose Lucida Grande. Now wine regedit search does show Lucida Grande, but only in the list of fonts installed, not a setting for fonts. I checked the user.reg and system.reg file using gedit and searched for Lucida Grande and couldn't find them either.

I also tried other fonts, and same thing, couldn't find their setting. Where does wine store them if not in the registry?

I asked because I want to export a reg file that I can just import whenever I create a new wine prefix.
