Build Identifier: M20100909-0800 FieldEditorPreferencePage#applyFont() itself is never called nor does any other class of the preferences sub-library invoke FieldEditor#applyFont() - neither FieldEditorPreferencePage itself nor any other class! This looks like a defect to me. Either FieldEditorPreferencePage.applyFont() should be called as part of the FieldEditorPreferencePage implementation or the applyFont() should be marked as deprecated. Reproducible: Always

(In reply to Eclipse Genie from comment #1) > New Gerrit change created: https://git.eclipse.org/r/111843 This patch proposal ensures that applyFont() is now called within createContents(). I would appreciate a review of that patch.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie.

Please don't close this issue. The problem still exists and I have provided a patch proposal two years(!) ago. Please review the patch.
As requested this should not be closed. With the patch I did not see a negative effect in the workbench's preference pages that inherit from FieldEditorPreferencePage. Actually there was no change visible. Could you elaborate under which conditions you consider this as a bug? Do you have an example of a preference page that gets fixed with the change? Could you attach before/after screenshot or an example?
