Description Maciej Pilichowski 2009-02-15 17:10:34 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

For weekend-users the font-dialog way is much safer, but for power-users it is not. For trivial changes it would be much simpler if I could just click on ^ font directly and get bigger size, or edit font name from "sans" to "serif" and voila, different font.

So instead of one disabled edit box, I suggest two editbox

General: [ Arev Sans_______________ v ] [ 8 <> ] [ choose ]

Everybody's happy.

Don't we check to have reported the same wish in the past?

Pino, sorry, I do check for duplicates, but I don't see any related results, I cannot do anything else. This of course due to different naming. I apologize!
