Description Louis Moureaux 2014-06-08 00:03:28 UTC
The font used in Konsole is the system "Monospace" font. However, it is not updated when changed in System Settings.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Konsole and System Settings
2. In System Settings, go to Application Appearance > Fonts
3. Change "Monospace" font to be 20pt tall
4. Apply settings
Actual Results:  
The font in Konsole remains the same size

Expected Results:  
The font in Konsole shoud be updated

The settings are applied after Konsole has been restarted.

I'm using Project Neon packages in KVM.

The font setting in konsole profiles is separate from the kde user-wide "Fixed Width" font; what's happening here, IIUC, since no particular font face/size is set in the Default profile konsole uses whatever font "Fixed width" is set to.

When the "Fixed Width" setting is changed, konsole picks up the change after it's restarted, which is expected in this case.

Note that if you change the font face/size in the konsole profile you're using then this setting isn't going to be affected by the "Fixed width" setting at all.

I'd close this as wontfix; but I'll differ the decision to the konsole developer(s).
