Package: gtranslator
Version: 1.0-3
Severity: normal

Edit | Preferences | Editor has font change buttons for original text
and translated text. They do not work. Font can be changed to whatever
font family and size, but the editor still shows the default font.

The default font is not fixed with, which makes it difficult to write
translations that need to align text vertically, a tabular form for
example. It becomes necessary to count manually how many characters
there are in the line.

Example:

msgid ""
"The configured parameters are:\n"
" read channel  = ${device_read}\n"
" write channel = ${device_write}\n"
" protocol      = ${protocol}"
msgstr "Tehdyt asetukset ovat:\n"
" lukukanava       = ${device_read}\n"
" kirjoituskanava  = ${device_write}\n"
" yhteyskäytäntö   = ${protocol}"

The above is easy with fixed with font, tedius if not.
