If I set font sizes in UI Editor for Tableview:

It doesn't end up applying:

Same if I set it manually with the ListDataSource.font

Ideas?

Hmm, I can't reproduce this here. Could you show your code? Perhaps you're re-assigning the data source somewhere?

I remember somewhere... Docs or forum post about not putting references to UI elements in the UI class init, which is where my font setting is. Even at that, I still changed the font size in the UI editor and nothing changed.

Well, you're creating a new data source in your __init__ method, so anything that you configured in the UI file won't have an effect, as you're replacing it entirely.

However, I manually set ui.ListDataSource.font = ('', 10)

    You should set self.listsource.font (ui.ListDataSource is the class, not your object).

    You want self.listsource.font,  not ui.ListDataSource.font!

    Completely misunderstood I was creating a new class. I think I get it now. Spent the last 30min reading over documentation and tinkering to get it.
