54295 - font-family definitions need to be "inherit" for UI consistency

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Themes, defect, P3)

Description

[Masaki Katakai]

In modern skin, many UI fonts are specified in the following,
which causes inconsistency on appearance. So these should be
`inherit' to inherit font-family only from global/global.css's
font-family definition.

global/menulist.css:      font-family             : geneva, arial;
global/tabcontrol.css:  font-family             : charcoal, ms sans serif;
communicator/button.css:      font                  : 11px arial;
communicator/button.css:      font-family   : Arial, sans-serif;
aim/findAFriendWizard.css:  font-family                 : serif;
aim/findAFriendWizard.css:  font-family                 : serif;
global/button.css:    font-family                       : charcoal, ms sans
serif;

How to reproduce on UNIX platform,

1) I changed global/global.css as follows,

    font-family         : sans-serif;

2) Specify Sans Serif as "b&h-lucida sans-iso8859-1" on font
   preference

   Most fonts of UI will be changed to lucidasans. However,
   button fonts will not be changed because global/button.css
   specifies own font-family.

I think this is resolved now since I changed Modern to use system fonts.
Marking fixed.
