(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kdevelop Version: 2.0 (using KDE 2.2.0 beta1) Severity: normal Installed from: compiled sources Compiler: gcc version 2.95.4 20010319 (Debian prerelease) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.6-pre8 OS/Compiler notes: This appears to be similar to bug 22220 reported against konsole. The gap between characters when echoing input and the indent where input is echoed seems to suggest a very large character width - regardless of the fact that a small font is selected. The reason I've reported this as a separate bug is that this problem is only supposed to occur with proportional fonts. Kdevelop uses proportional fonts and there doesn't appear to be anyway to change that. (Submitted via bugs.kde.org) (Called from KBugReport dialog)
konsole_part is not intended to work with variable width fonts. It uses the KDE-wide fixed font setting so you should look and change the font there.
