--- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <nate at kde.org> ---
>From what I can tell in your screen recording, the fonts get *smaller* in
newly-launched apps after you set an accent color. That's extremely odd and I
can't recall any other reports of it.

Unfortunately issues that affect you don't always effect everyone else. This is
why it's always important to submit bug reports and not assume that someone
else has already noticed the issue and is in the process of fixing it.

Can you do the following?
1. Unset accent color and reboot
2. In a terminal window, run `cp ~/.config/kcmfonts ~/.config/kcmfonts.ORIG &&
cp ~/.config/kdeglobals ~/.config/kdeglobals.ORIG`
3. Set an accent color to trigger the bug; verify by launching an app and
seeing that it's messed up
4. In a terminal window, run `diff ~/.config/kcmfonts ~/.config/kcmfonts`
5. Paste the output into a comment here
6. In a terminal window, run `diff ~/.config/kdeglobals
~/.config/kdeglobals.ORIG`
7. Paste the output into a comment here
8 In a terminal window, `rm ~/.config/kdeglobals.ORIG
~/.config/kdeglobals.ORIG`


Thanks!
