Description Lasse Liehu 2012-09-11 18:19:06 UTC 
KFontAction constructor can be given a fontListCriteria and based on that a list of items is set as the list of selectable items (KSelectAction::setItems), but KFontAction::createWidget creates a new KFontComboBox, which doesn't use this list and always includes all fonts.

Example:

KFontAction *action = new KFontAction(KFontChooser::SmoothScalableFonts, this);
QWidget *widget = action->requestWidget(this);
// widget shows a list of all fonts, including bitmap fonts

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Christoph Feck 2012-09-11 19:02:58 UTC 
Can you check, what Qt's font database returns for said font (replace Helvetica with the font you believe is not smoothly scalable):

    QFontDatabase db;
    qDebug() << db.isSmoothlyScalable("Helvetica");

KFontChooser filters by this criterium.
Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2012-09-11 19:09:14 UTC 
Forget what I wrote. I had long planned to add support for KFontChooser::FontListCriteria to KFontComboBox, but had been hold back by the "no new features in kdelibs" rule. Now that I have a valid bug, I can add it for 4.10.

were still used for completion
