On my system (Linux Ubuntu 10.04) the rendering of WikiText (in task descriptions and comments) is still broken. See attached screen shots. I did not find any configuration to change that. -- Configuration Details -- Product: Eclipse 1.3.0.20100617-0521 (org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product) Installed Features: org.eclipse.mylyn_feature 3.4.0.v20100608-0100-e3x
Created attachment 175465 [details] Example of font rendering in task comment I wonder how I could configure matching sizes of monospace and sans fonts.
Created attachment 175499 [details] Screenshot showing font size preferences Font sizes within the task editor are set in the preferences under *General -> Appearance -> Colors and Fonts -> Tasks*. Please try altering these settings. After doing so you'll need to close/reopen your task editors in order for changes to take effect. Please let me know if that fixes the issue.
(In reply to comment #2) > Font sizes within the task editor are set in the preferences under *General -> > Appearance -> Colors and Fonts -> Tasks*. Oh my dear -- stupid me. This was confusing me all the time. And now I know why: Since the appearance dialog configure both colors and fonts, I always entered "font" in the quick search field to tune my fonts. But the relevant font here, i.e. "Task Editor - Notes and Comments" does not contain the word font. Some other font entries also lack this keyword, but default to some base text font which I always configure. So my request here would be: Just add font to the preference name, e.g. "Task Editor - Notes and Comments font". Then this issue can be closed.
Thanks Jörg, marking as "WORKSFORME". Changing every font preference to include the word "font" in its label seems to go against usability best practices.
