<pre>Description:
When creating a Table Control subform, it is not possible to change the text
size of the cells in the table or the size of the text in the column headings.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Follow the instructions in Getting Started with LibreOffice 6.0, Chapter 8,
Getting Started with Base, through to all the steps in the section "Using the
Wizard to Create a Form".
2. In the Form Editor window, in the Table Control subform near the bottom,
notice the size of the text in the headings "Date", "FuelCost", etc.
3. Double-click on Table Control subform at the bottom of the Edit Form window.
4. Under the "General" tab, notice the Font setting contains the value
"(Default)".
5. Attempt to change the value of the Font setting.
6. Exit the Properties: Table Control dialog.
7. Click on a column in the Table Control subform. For example click on Date.
8. Right-click on the Date column and select "Column...".
9. The Properties: Date Field dialog appears.
10. Look for a way to change the font.
Actual Results:
The font setting cannot be changed. In the Properties: Table Control
dialog,clicking on the ellipses (...) button on the right brings up various
fonts but selecting any of them has no effect. The value in the Font box
remains unchanged and the appearance of the Table Control is unaffected.
Plus there is no font setting at all in the Properties: Date Field dialog.
Expected Results:
It is expected that the appearance of the Table Control, including the font
size for cell elements and the header cells, can be modified.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
This issue appears to have been discussed in a two-year-old ask topic:
<a href="https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/93797/database-subform-font-problem/">https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/question/93797/database-subform-font-problem/</a>
The answer suggests that selecting the column properties is the solution but I
was unable to find any setting in the column properties that can change the
text size.
Some of the comments in the ask topic suggest that this is an old bug but I
could not find an existing open bug while searching this database. I would not
be upset at all if this bug ends up being a duplicate!
