[UI] UI (was RE: A couple of simple ergonomic adjustmentsonsqueak-dev)

[Gary Chambers]

356 looks much the same for me. I have modified StringMorph etc (for the new
look, as "fixes") to set the bounds, when shrink wrapped to the minimum
extent reported by the font. Perhaps that calculation is a bit off. Just a
thought...

The kerning in the last released version should be ok in HintingNone mode;
but it is incorrect in HintingLight mode.
I fixed this in
<http://www.squeaksource.com/FreeTypePlus/FreeType-tween.356.mcz>
FreeType-tween.356.mcz which you can get from SqueakSource. 
 
After loading, switch to HintingLight mode in the Preference browser. (If
you already have HintingLight selected, then switch to HintingNone, and then
back to HintingLight - this will clear any caches).
 
Cheers,
Andy

Me too!
Would be nice to get the kerning sorted, though doubtless would be harder
work! ('r's at the end seemd particularly prone).

Thanks Gary.
This is really excellent. 
I can't wait.  
Cheers,
Andy
