Bug report:
A (minor) problem is that the fonts used in d.barscale
are not consistent in PNG driver (CELL driver not tested).
When placing a barscale with d.barscale in a GRASS monitor,
the size of "N" (north) and the number at the right (e.g. 10km)
are consistent. The same settings in PNG driver lead to a
too large number at the right.
See

Nothing severe, but not nice.

I am unable to reproduce this.
I am also unable to see how this could happen; the text code isn't
part of the individual drivers, it's common to all of them.
Can you provide the region information, and the size of the monitors?

OK, I see what's happened; The PNG monitor is actually significantly
taller than the image which you provided.
The text at the RHS of the bar is text, which is sized as 1/40th of
the frame' height. The North symbol at the LHS is line art, and is
sized in pixels.
I've fixed the text size at 14 pixels.

Glynn,
as usual a perfect solution. Thanks,
Markus
PS: I'll close the report.
