Keepassxc: Notes section in the Password Entry Widget should be fixed width.

[grim210]

I have a lot of information in the notes field that is better served by a monospace font. Since the widget is plain text anyway (as opposed to rich text with bold/italics/highlighting/etc), it makes more sense in my opinion for it to be fixed width.

Please add this...
I store belonging sensitive information in the notes field and it's incredible annoying that it uses a non-monospaced font here...

A simple option in the preferences

[x] Use monospace font in notes field

With default = off

could please all users

Thanks!

This looks solved in #1124

FYI: As of right now (KeepassXC 2.3.1), the Notes field is _not_ monospaced on Mac (OSX 10.13.3), though the password one is. From my naive reading of the commits, the password font is set in a very different way from the way the notes field is.

It is neither on Windows 8.1 (more specifically: Server 2012 R2 U3)...

Since this has not been addressed (yet) and v2.3.0 has been released, should this get removed from the v2.3.0 milestone and possibly get re-scheduled?

I want fixed fonts too And have an option to make notes the default tab

Making the notes the default tab is not necessary anymore after https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/1564 is closed.

I am working on the monospaced font option.

IMO the font option should be part of a larger font choice, including size. I foresee that as a tab on the General application settings (perhaps named "Style") where we can put icon choice and color pallette in the future.

[ba32107]

Agree, that would be better. However, in order to address this issue, it has to be a per-field setting - surely the users wouldn't want the font to be monospaced all over in the application.

There is already #621, but that only tracks the font size. I see three options now:

• Roll this issue out as it is with the monospace option (it's more or less done in my repo), and track the future "Style" tab in another one
• Change #621 to incorporate the changes you mentioned and close this (might slow down development on that issue which has strong demand)
• Change this issue to add the changes you mentioned (in that case I'll throw away my changes regarding only the monspaced setting)

How do you want to proceed?

[droidmonkey]

We should create a new issue for the style tab. Go ahead and make the notes monospace and we'll see how they look.

Thoughts? I think it looks good.

[droidmonkey]

Yes that actually looks great, lets run with it.
