[Github-comments] [geany/geany] choose font: classify families into monospace/proportional (#1928)

[Matthew Brush]

@VictorelPetrovich yeah, my rant was aimed squarely at the newer GtkFontChooser. GtkFontSelection is decent enough.

@elextr GtkFontSelection is available in GTK+3 as well, IIRC it's still used in some parts of Geany even in GTK+ 3 (prefs dialog font buttons). It also provides access to the individual widgets so they could trivially be disabled to solve the issue with Geany not supporting font properties normally. Both possibilities suck, using a deprecated dialog or using a supported one with a user-hostile UI.
