Following https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=435372

It is extremely hard to know that that "variables" can change rendering features like font family and size due to the place it is put.
The UI/UX can be enhanced in a way that the variables are (for example) a listbox like shortcuts dialog.
Plus adding it to the documentation.
And perhaps having some help in the color schemas window for people to know how to change font.
