Description

Using this page fman documentation one can change the font size used. However, when I have multiple instances of fman running (I usually have one instance on each virtual desktop) the font sizes of the different instances are not equal. Reloading the plugins doesn't resolve this issue.

I am using fman on Ubuntu 20.04.

Research direction

Start with the font-size-and-family documentation page and reproduce the discrepancy on Ubuntu 20.04 using multiple fman instances on separate virtual desktops. Compare the instances after changing the documented font-size setting and reloading plugins; done means the configured font size is consistent across all running instances.
