Description Mohd Asif Ali Rizwaan 2004-02-13 09:54:33 UTC
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.2.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.3
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.22

These the the Configure fonts list "kcmshell fonts"

1. General
2. Fixed Width
3. Toolbar
4. Menu
5. Window Title
6. Taskbar
7. Desktop

The existing types are too basic. I request for more flexibility like:

1. Pushbuttons -> Active (focused)
               -> Inactive (not focused)
               -> Hovered/Highlighted (when hovered)

2. Menu Bar    -> Active (focused)
               -> Inactive (not focused)
               -> Hovered/Highlighted (when hovered)

3. Menus       -> Active (focused)
               -> Inactive (not focused)
               -> Hovered/Highlighted (when hovered)

4. Toolbars    -> Main toolbar -> active, inactive, hovered
               -> Toolbar      -> active, inactive, hovered

5. TaskButton  -> active, inactive, hovered

6. Tabs        -> active, inactive, hovered

7. Window Title-> Active (focused)
               -> Inactive (not focused)
               -> Hovered/Highlighted (when hovered)

8. Statusbar  -> active, inactive, hovered

I believe this will allow better look and feel of every KDE widgets. other widgets should also be allowed to have different fonts. like Dropdown list, etc.

Currently if you use General font a big one, then most of the widgets look ugly. thank you.

I agree that systemsettings in KDE4 should allow more font settings, preferably per-widget type.

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug. Kcontrol has been replaced by System Settings in Plasma. Please give the latest version of that a try, and open a new bug in "systemsettings" if you continue to have an issue. Thank you!
