Ah.

Ok, I'm using what I think is the standard Windows Aero color scheme which is then using Segoe UI size 9 as the window menu text.

I then went through pgAdmin and changed it to use the same font, and the filter dialog box is now showing the 'ok' and 'cancel' buttons.

So what is going on here?

I tried changing the font size from 9 to 10 within the pgAdmin options, and it is still showing the filter dialog box correctly.

I then changed it to ms sans serif 10, and it appears ok.

I then changed it to ms reference sans 9, and it still appears ok.

I don't know, but it seems fine now.

Very strange.

I'll get back to you if I see something happening odd again in future.

Regards,
Peter

I'm referring to OS font settings, not pgAdmin ones.
