Description of problem: Running qcad on a low resolution screen (1024x768 or lower) you will find that the font sizes in the application are far too large. Now qcad is a qt4 application but running qtconfig-qt4 and altering the font sizes does not modify the sizes of the fonts used within the application. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): This was found using F11-Alpha but the same problems exist in F10 as well. qcad-2.0.5.0-8.fc10.i386 How reproducible: Every time without fail. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install qcad on a machine with a screen resolution of 1024x768 or lower. 2. Observe that the fonts within the application user interface are too large. 3. Attempt to change them using qtconfig-qt4 (and restart the application). 4. Observe that there is no change to the applications font size. Actual results: Really big fonts on a low resolution screen. Expected results: Smaller fonts on a low resolution screen, or at least it should be configurable. Additional info:
No, qcad is qt3.
Ahh ok, so that explains why the changes I make in qtconfig-qt4 don't have any effect. So, is there a set of files I need to modify for the qt3 information with Fedora?
Or (obviously) some settings I can modify in the qcad config files?
yum install qt3-config and run: qtconfig NOTE: qt apps will respect DE font settings if run inside a KDE desktop.
Yup that all works a treat, many thanks!
