Review request for kde-workspace, Martin Gräßlin and Eike Hein.


Repository: plasma-desktop


Description
-------

We need to add autohint checkbox to KCM fonts, this feature is requested by various users downstream (for example, see https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1240 ).

I patched kde-workspace 4.9 in 2012, now I'd like to submit my patch upstream to have this feature in Plasma 5 for every distribution.

BTW, LXQt already added autohint option to font settings several monthes ago: https://github.com/lxde/lxqt-config/pull/13#event-187605798

Testing
-------

Old KDE 4 patch was used by ROSA and OpenMandriva since 2012, no issues with it. I had to adjust it a bit to follow Plasma 5 changes but in general it's old well-tested patch. Seems to work fine for me.


Thanks,

Andrey Bondrov
