Purely a usability issue here but I cant seem to configure fonts or really any "appearance" settings for any AppVMs. I presumed Dom0 preferences would have an impact on AppVMs but Im clearly incorrect but given that I see no way to configure this outside of manually hacking up config files as it would seem none of the tools are in the repos. ie: fedora-24.

As an example I have to use evolution for my email and currently the fonts in the messages area (because evolution can not customize those and uses the system) are quite literally gargantuan. Like the kind of gargantuan from Kill Bill.

Is there any method of changing these outside roaming around through .config, .local, etc?

Looks like there are some tools but so far none of them actually do anything as well. ie: xfce4-appearance-settings.

Hmmm.. I ran gnome-control-center expecting 'Fonts' to be there, but no
luck.

You could install gnome-tweak-tool and use that to adjust fonts.

That did the trick. Thanks!
