Description Kevin Funk 2007-01-12 20:52:00 UTC

Version:           0.12.3 (using KDE 3.5.5, Gentoo)
Compiler:          Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.18-gentoo-r6

Ok, this is sort of weird.
I have set Verdana 9 in kopete's settings as base font. When I start to chat with a contact, everything seems to be ok. When I type, the font size of Verdana is 9 (as it should be). But the font size in the chat field (the one above the input field) is Verdana 10, not 9.
It's sort of weird because this does not happen when i choose Trebuchet MS in the settings. Trebuchet MS 9 is Trebuchet MS 9 both in the chat field and in the input field.
I'm going to attach a screenshot. Thanks in advance.

This problems occurs not just with Verdana, there a several more fonts which behave like that.
PS: I think this is protocol-independent (ICQ + Jabber protocols both show this problem)

I just noticed i've uploaded the wrong screenshot. In this picture i have Trebuchet MS 10 in the settings. The input field is font size 9, the chat field size 10.
So it has obviously nothing to do with the font I set. 
There's just something really wrong.

I can confirm this bug - I've set my default font to Sans Serif 9, but the displayed font size is 10 in the chat window (but not in the typing area, there the font size is 9 as it should be).

For me, this looks like a duplicate of Bug 78225.
Feel free to re-open if it is not.
