I've been using gnome as my desktop for a long time now, but i have some small problems i would like to get rid of.

When i open native KDE apps in gnome, the fonts are really big. I know you can change the gnome apps's font family and font size easily in KDE (the forums are full of threads of those) but i can't seem to find an easy guide in doing the same for KDE apps in Gnome..

I'm aware of "qtconfig" but changes there doesn't work for the apps.

The app that i'm using is Kile..

Any help ?

Code:
emerge -s gtk-qt
sorry i fissliped the name on the top post ..
maybe that will help you ... otherwise you should try emerging gtk or any gtk apps with its respective USE concerning the fonts .. you should check xorg ..

Yeah sure, there are LaTeX GUI's written in GTK, not as good though.

Anyway, thanks for the input, i just wondered if it was possible. It's not a big deal, i can live with it ;)
