Is there a default font, size, and style setting for the whole project? If there is not any I think it would be nice to have it. I can associate this with a bug which I am going to post in a few seconds.

Edit: The bug link that I have just posted.

This should be controlled by the themes in `$install/data/modules/com.inductiveautomation.perspective/themes` - they’re just plain .css files (which you can edit yourself).

Sorry for the confusion but not the perspective module. I was talking about regular designer and the vision module. The Tahoma, Bold, 11 that appears when you draw a new component on the vision windows.

No, there isn’t a setting for that default. I agree, it would be nice.
