Is there a way to change what font is used to display the 'suggestions' list in OS-X 10.6+ when using the Chinese IME (simplified)? I've looked around in the preferences (particulary 'Candidate Window'), but found nothing.
The font used is not the standard new and pretty one, but the old blocky one with slightly ugly/odd looking characters.
I assume this will take some plist editing, but have no clue which one to look at.
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.inputmethod.SCMI.plist doesn't have it
~/Librara/Preferences/Input Methods is empty
Update:
For the moment I have switched to QIM Input, and it is working pretty well. Linked to that page because the main site is not in english. The app is very well translated though.
- Pros
- Many more options (most of which I don't understand)
- Can change font face / color / size /background
- Skinnable (sogu skins, ugly though)
- Cons:
- Puts characters and number selector together in same color, making it a little difficult to tell what is 'candidate #1, #2, etc'. Maybe a skin can fix this.
strings /System/Library/Input\ Methods/SCIM.app/Contents/MacOS/SCIM | grep -E '^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]{10,80}$' | sort | uniq | pbcopy, but didn't find anything promising. – Lauri Ranta May 23 '12 at 10:07
