Description Nicolas Brisset 2005-07-22 15:00:43 UTC

Version:           1.2.0_devel (using KDE 3.4.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.3
OS:                SunOS (sun4u) release 5.8

Even though kst default settings are generally fine, in some environments there can be problems, e.g. wrt font sizes. My working environment is basically remote XDMCP connexion from a Windows XP machine to a Sun server, and with that setup I get plots with extremely small font sizes.
If only I could specify in a kst setting to use bigger fonts (with the same figure as I can input in the "Appearance" tab in the plot dialog), it would be really help. More generally speaking, I've noticed that some people like huge font sizes when others like them tiny, so why not give users a choice here ?

SVN commit 437749 by arwalker:

BUG:109467 Allow user to specify a base font size for the plots. The default is 12, which will look the same as previous builds if left unchanged. Plots will use the new base font size when next updated. The plots will not be immediately updated.
