Oh I just realized there's another, very simple option: 4. When migrating from 5.25, the migration script sets the font size not to the default 10, but to a very large value (or at least larger than the panel height). Then the font will autofit to the panel, similar to 5.25. cons: 1) Too late for users already upgraded. 2) The config dialog looks a bit strange with a very large sample text. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
