[SOLVED] Font display in vertical tabs.

Possibly one for Andrew.

I've only just noticed that if I set the tab font to italic in a stylesheet, the font displays correctly in horizontal tabs but is ignored in vertical tabs. Setting the font to bold displays correctly in both horizontal and vertical tabs.
Might this be a limitation with vertically aligned text ??

On closer inspection, it's not that vertical tabs do not display italics, it's that they don't display italics correctly, the text is slightly distorted as shown in this enlarged screenshot.......

this is a Qt bug that cannot be fixed in QCAD
