=== Customize the Sugar font size ===
This [[Features/Font_configuration | Feature]] adds the possibility for distributors and deployers to customize the Sugar font size. The proposed solution is one similar to the solutions used in other desktop environments like [http://gnome.org/ GNOME] and [http://kde.org KDE]: allow customization of the base font size used across the entire desktop platform. This is another important step to bring Sugar more in-line with the desktop world and distributors like [http://laptop.org OLPC] will be able to select font sizes without ugly hacks. In Sugar 0.90 there will be a new control panel section that users will be able to customize font size to suit their needs, too. The size of the Sugar font can be set using the GConf key ''/schemas/desktop/sugar/font/default_size'' which is set to ''10'' by default. The Font face can be set using the GConf key ''/schemas/desktop/sugar/font/default_face'' which is set to ''Sans Serif'' by default.
