Installed from:    Compiled sources

Hello plasma-team, please consider the following configurability request from a kde user who loves to fine-tune the looks of his desktop:

The "standard text size" value should be configurable in plasma independently from the other apps's text size values (as set in the KCM).

Moreover the "plasma text size" should be configurable per-containment.

There should be a special default value "use global plasma text size", which itself should have a special default value "use global KDE text size", so that users/distros don't have to mess with that if they don't want to.

Here is my use case: I like very small text in my panel, so I can make it thinner and/or fit more apps in the Task Manager.

Currently it's nice being able to easily resize the panel, but there's not much point doing so as there are basically only two sizes that make sense: the one where one line of text fits, and the one where two lines fit !

Cheers & keep it up,
Benoit

Since KDE 4.2 allows to set a special size for the Taskbar, and there is also the Desktop text size, that's all I need, so I mark as FIXED. Thanks !
