Description Hans Ecke 2003-02-28 23:36:53 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
OS:          Linux

Abstract:
I don't like the default fonts in konsole. Instead, each time I start a new terminal window, it should come up in the font I specify (in my case, fixed-11).

Expected behavior: 
* choose (Shift-)RMB -> Settings -> 'Configure Konsole'
* Window comes up, choose 'Session' Tab
* under 'Font', set it to 'Custom'
* Window comes up asking for custom font name and size

Behavior in reality: 
The last step never happens. There is no way to specify what font and size I'd like. So it still starts up with the defaults.

Summary:
There is no way to specify a custom font that applies to all newly started instances of konsole.

You confuse the session editor with the default settings: Choose your font with
"Settings/Fonts/Custom..." and call "Settings/Save Settings" afterwards.

Ok,

But Save Settings seems to have no effect.
If I open a new window, the fonts come back to the original ones
