Summary0013286: Overlapping interface windows may prevent setting directional buildings properly, based on font?
DescriptionBridges, screw pumps, siege engines, etc. Any building that "faces" a particular direction cannot be changed from the default if the font is set to anything other than curses_600x340. In all cases, the window containing the buttons can only be accessed by zooming the interface quite far out, else the overlapping windows prevent accessing the directional menu (which is always underneath the "building materials" menu). If curses_800x600 or curses_square_16x16 are used, the zoom level required is such that as soon as the buttons are actually reachable with the mouse, they are (I presume) too small to actually interact with; clicking on buttons does nothing.
Steps To Reproduce1: Open init_default and change [FULLFONT:curses_640x300.png] to [FULLFONT:curses_square_16x16.png]
2: Open Dwarf Fortress, start Fortress Mode
3: Attempt to build a Screw Pump
4: Lament at your inability to pump in any direction other than S->N
Tagsbridge, scaling, screen resizing, screw pump
