linux, IDE, statusbar-tip: bolding procedure parameters

currently the hole statusbar content is bolded. under windows only the current parameter of a procedure is bolded (where the cursor is in the code)
i would liketo have that under linux too.
(maybe this is just due to a system/desktop config of mine?)

Well, it actually works like that since quite a while.

do you mean it should work in 4.30 beta 5 already, or did you just add it for the next release?

It worked here since atleast 4.10. I don't actually remember when it was added.
If you don't see it then you probably have a gui font which is always/never bold.

i checked arbitrarily many applications but 'gimp' is the only one i found with something bold in a statusbar ..and an executable created with PB has bolded text there too. all others do have only non-bold text.
(unfortunately i also can't find a setting for this in suse 11. in the general font settings (desktop settings / 'Kontrollzentrum') i don't have set any bold font)
since other apps seem to be able to use non-bold text you should be able to display the procedure hints bolded correctly.
