(4.10.1) Two issues with speed dial widgets in VC

I seem to notice two a little bit annoying issues with Speed Dial widgets in the VC:

- I can't set font color.
I can set the font, but it seems as if the font color goes ignored. Not idea what happens here.

- The Dial doesn't scale in size with the rest of the widget, when the "Tap" button is disabled.
When the "Tap" button is disabled but the "+" and "-" buttons aren't, the dial will scale to a certain point, but not beyond the combined height of both buttons.

A few minor issues:
- The text input fields for milliseconds, is right up the right border of the widget, it seems its justification isn't balanced.

- The Name of the widget isn't centered.

I haven't found anyone else speaking of it on the forums, so I assumed these things either went by unnoticed, or something.

Another little visual bug I've noticed:

In the VC settings, you can select whether buttons have their frame light up, or that little LED in the corner.
This doesn't seem to be stored to the qxw (at least not in the <VirtualConsole> tag).

The effect is, that I have to manually set the button style to LED, when it's the first time I'm using qlc+ on there.
It is obviously not much of a problem in every day use, but I suppose it's an oversight nonetheless.

Hi Poleman,
In regard to the font colour, it can be changed by right-clicking and choosing Foreground. It only changes the heading though. Is that what you meant?
I use a mac and the font dialogue box does give you access to the font colour but QLC+ doesn't use this to change colour. I am sure there is a good reason that people smarter than me know!

Cheers

It's exactly what I mean, and it's exactly what doesn't work. :)
The same function can be reached by clicking the "abc" button at the top after selecting the widget.

I'm on Linux (Fedora 22) here, which shouldn't make a difference because Qt, but eh...

I just checked this on a Windows VM, and pretty much the same thing's happening.

The dials looks a bit different, but when it comes to resizing them, they behave the same way.
When changing the foreground color, nothing happens.
The input boxes retain a white background color, but that isn't bothering me. The risizing and the foreground color is most annoying to me.

For some reason, the color also seems to change, whether I'm on Operate Mode or not. When not in Operate Mode, the font color is lighter, and becomes darker once switching to Operate Mode.

The font color that I've selected never gets applied, anyway. This seems not to work in any version of any OS I've tested so far (I tried it on Win 7 recently).
