Emphasizing a gtk.Label

[ravenheart]

I want to give some emphasis to a Label from gtk, without breaking gnome
theme (i.e. not changing colors, etc)
I think bolding it would be a good option (could be also underscoring
but don't like it at all).
What would be the best solution? How to do it? I have found how to
change colors and underscoring but nothing else.
Thanks.

Just set text to "<bwhatever</b>".

I don't know about the best, but I would use:

label = gtk.Label()
# Pango markup should be on by default, if not use this line
#label.set_use_markup(True)
label.set_markup("<b>Look, I'm bold</b>")

Maybe:

mylabel.set_markup("""<span weight="bold">My Label</span>""")

? For more details, check out the PyGTK docs for the Label widget:

and the Pango markup language:
