Application Output View Window font: The Application Output View window is used to display error and state information from applications
which are run from inside KDevelop. These are information the applications usually sends to the console when run stand-alone. So you do not
need to leave the IDE when testing the application you currently work
on.
To select a font suitable for the Application Output View window click
the Window Font button showing the currently selected font (it says ‘Luxi

pop up from which you may select the font to be used.

On first start-up, KDevelop initializes this font setting to the standard font for
which your KDE user has been configured. This setting is fixed, so if you alter
Preferences → Appearances & Themes → Fonts in the Control Center, this
will not effect this KDevelop font selection. You will have to explicitly reselect
the Application Output View window font.
