#1859 Select Notes Font in Edit Entry Dialog

[Bruce Wilkinson]

Please add a "Select Notes Font" button to the Options/Interface.

This would allow the font to be chosen for the Edit Entry Dialog's Notes field in the same way that it is currently allowed in the Password field.

The notes field can then be more easily formatted with indents using plain text and a mono-spaced font that matches the List Font.

I strongly second the ability to change the font of Notes in the Edit/View Entry dialog.

I too wish to change it to a mono-spaced font, such as Consolas or a Unicode one such as DejaVu Sans Mono.

Perhaps it may be better to enable this from a Font menu entry in the menu of the right mouse button, so that any font anywhere can be changed in the same way, by a right mouse click selection.

[Rekon IT]

Yes, please implement the ability to change the Notes font. Sometimes I put secondary passwords in the notes field and I would like to distinguish between capital i / lowercase l or zero / capital o.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

[Don George]

I also would like to make Notes font larger or the entire Edit Entry window.
75 year old eyes need it. :-)

[RandyT]

Thanks for a great product, but put me down for font customization in the notes field. My old eyes just can not read such small face. Thx

[JefferyS]

I could sure use this too for passwords in notes. I also ran into a case sensitive User Name and couldn't tell an i from a l .

Been using KeePass for a very long time and love it!

I've written a plugin which sets "Courier New" on all notes if you are interested.

[PatrickS]

Can you share the plugin ? I need this too.
I would like to have a non-proportional font for the description because i add there keys.
Lets assume you have 50 Keys. I dont want to create for each key a new entry, this would be a tedious task. So i add them to the description like follow:

Key: ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD (unused)
Key: ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD (unused)
Key: ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD (unused)
Key: ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD (unused)
Key: ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD (unused)
Key: ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD (unused)
Key: ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD (unused)
Key: ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD-ABCD (unused)

It would be really nice if you could choose a non-proportional font for the description. This setting should be stored in the file.kdbx not in the configuration file when this is possible.

I have attached the DLL. I will post the source and a plgx file later.
You can decompile it if you don't trust it. ;)

[Humangenom]

It looks like that my plugin uses a lot of CPU and RAM after some hours. I don't know yet why and I'm not 100% sure it it's my plugin, but I will test KP now without my plugin to see if it changes.

[Martin Specht]

Are there any new findings regarding the CPU/RAM usage and possibly a plgx version?

[tbone78]

Yes, is there any news? I also need a monospace font in the notes area, thank you!

[Ian Ferguson]

Useful for all the reasons stated above.. grid layouts for two-factor authentication are useful only when using fixed-width font.

This feature is provided by the NotesFontSelector plugin:
