[Gambas-user] GAMBAS IDE font/form size versus runtime font/form size

[kevinfishburne]

I'm using GAMBAS 2.13 under Ubuntu 9.10 development branch and the GNOME
desktop environment. I've noticed that the GAMBAS IDE ignores GNOME font
sizes, but when I run a GAMBAS app it adheres to GNOME's font sizes,
adjusting form and control sizes accordingly. I can't tell for certain but
it appears that the GAMBAS IDE uses QT rather than GTK. My theory is that
the GAMBAS IDE uses some hidden QT/KDE font size but that a running GAMBAS
app uses whatever GUI/fonts correspond with the currently running desktop
environment (in my case GNOME). Is that what is happening?

My basic problem is that the GAMBAS IDE form and font sizes do not match the
form and font sizes of a running GAMBAS app. To workaround this I have to
set the "application font" size to 8 instead of 10 in GNOME, which then
affects every other app as well. Is it possible to adjust GAMBAS, QT, or
KDE's font sizes so that the GAMBAS IDE will more closely match the GAMBAS
app running in GNOME?
