[solved] Fixed font in Editor?

Post by jdm »

Hello, I have searched but haven't seen an direct answer, is the above possible?

The other annoying thing is that pasting into FreeCAD (editor or config fields) seem to have a logic of his own? I can get it to working sometime but can't even tell what actions will enable regualr copy from web, paste into editor?

OS: Fedora 34 (Workstation Edition) (GNOME/gnome)
Word size of OS: 64-bit
Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit
Version: 0.19.Unknown
Build type: Unknown
Python version: 3.9.4
Qt version: 5.15.2
Coin version: 4.0.0a
OCC version: 7.5.0
Locale: English/United States (en_US)
