Version: 1.4.90.1-1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.1) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages OS: Linux The fontsize in palettes are too small when you are (as I am) using a general fontsize of 8. The fontsize is calculated as generalFont().pointSize() * 0.7 which in my case gives 5.6. And since this value is then casted to an int, the effective size is only 5. I would prefer too see some kind of limit, as in the attached patch.
Created attachment 14905 [details] Limit the fontsize
I'm not sure that's correct: there may well still exist screens where 5 pts is preferable. It all depends on the dpi of your screen. I'll go and ponder about it some!
I've already made some tests in this topic: Kexi property editor (and sidebar in general) has set minimal fonts already. Please take a look at: QFont Kexi::smallFont(QWidget *init) in koffice/kexi/core/kexi.cpp The code depends on desktop geometry and pixel size, not on DPI, which is not always properly set. IMHO function like this can go to kofficeui or later to kdecore. Another issue: it's always safer to provide an app-wide "SmallFontSize" setting in the *rc file, for people that are not happy with defaults.

As of Koffice 1.5, Krita and Karbon allows users to change the pallete font-size through their setting. In Krita, the change takes effect immediately after pressing 'ok' buttons in the setting dialog. In Karbon, I need to quit and restart Karbon for the change to take effect. Unfortunately, Kivio does not provide such option.
do you still have this bug?
We fixed this in koffice2
