Font size of master password smaller after update

[sycam0r-e]

Overview

I just updated to 2.7.3 pre-release. When unlocking a database, the font size of the database password is now smaller than with 2.7.2 stable. For me, it's just a tad to small. I am aware of #6822 but I did not change my system font size on my Mac in the meantime which leads me to think it might be a change in KeepassXC that led to the different password font size? I have no clue though so happy to learn! :)

We did not change the font size of the password.

It's not smaller, but it's a proportional font now, not monospace anymore. I actually don't know why, maybe a side effect of some other change?

@droidmonkey I don't think you fixed this one. This here is about the master password input field.

is now smaller than with 2.7.2 stable

I don't see how that is possible since we did not change anything regarding font size between these versions. I just checked using GammaRay and the font size of the master password input is 9 point on Windows (same as always).

I don't know either, but I noticed it, too. The master password field font is proportional all of a sudden, which at least looks smaller.

Ahh ok that might be the problem.

Seems to be a cross-platform issue. I saw it on macOS, but I also have it on Ubuntu at least.

Can confirm on macOS 12.5.1 (21G83) using KeePassXC - Version 2.7.3

Since this seems to be a thing on multiple platforms, I'm closing this one in favour of #8638.
