Version: 2.1.0 (using KDE 4.6.4) OS: Linux summary says it all. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. View --> Message List --> Theme --> Fancy. 2. in KMail's Appearance settings, in the Fonts tab, apply a custom font size to "Message List". Actual Results: * the custom font size is applied to subject text in the message list. * the custom font size is ignored by the sender and date text in the message list. Expected Results: the custom font size is applied to all text in the message list. OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.38-10-generic Compiler: cc
the subject text for new messages also ignores the custom font size setting.
I can confirm this bug
It's not a bug. It's defined in theme. In theme we told that we can't change it.
(In reply to comment #3) > It's not a bug. > It's defined in theme. In theme we told that we can't change it. isn't that assertion a bug? from the end user's point of view, the setting indicates the ability to customize the message list's font, but in reality it only provides the ability to customize it in some parts of the message list and not others. it doesn't matter if it's the setting dialog or the theme or whatever that ignores the setting; the actual behavior is not what's reasonably expected, so somewhere there is a bug. perhaps you'd like this to be a wish list request instead? something along the lines of "provide a way to customize various fonts used in the message list". all of the other fonts are customizable; why shouldn't these be too? i'll settle for this if that's what it takes to bring this to a developer's attention. either way, i don't agree that this is an invalid request.
