[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-19796) Forge editor changes are not applied after changing font preferences

[Koen Aers (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-19796?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13073709#comment-13073709 ] 

Koen Aers commented on JBIDE-19796:
-----------------------------------

AFAICS the "Forge Console Font" from the "Forge" category is a remainder of the F1 support and currently not used in the F2 related console. The font used in the F2 console is called "Aesh Console Font" and taken from the "Aesh" category. I have done some work so that changing the preferences for this font (or the main Console Font) are now immediately reflected in the F2 console. 
The old "Forge Console Font" should either be removed or else used properly in the F2TextViewer. Using it properly will need some additional refactoring though and I'm not sure if it's worth doing this effort because we want to change the Forge console implementation to use the new shell included in Eclipse anyway. So I have commented out this contribution for now. I'm going to resolve this issue as 'Done' but feel free to reopen it if the fix is not sufficient.
