More "properties" woes: TCC's font on its properties is taking the size from TCMD instead.

As shown, I configured my TCC independent window to use the Lucida Console font, size 16. Instead, it uses size 12. Turns out, TCMD's options DO say size 12, and that's what TCC seems to be using, running independently or over TCMD. OTOH, TCC over Windows Terminal (configured to use Lucida Console 16 in its own TCC profile) uses Lucida Console 16.

Moreover, the Font Properties window not only shows the incorrect size preview (I selected 16, shows me what clearly is 12), but the error is carried over if I change the size within the setting, as if it were carrying through the increment or decrement on each change, instead of the actual value.

I then changed to Consolas 20, and instead got Consolas 13:

If nothing else, if the font size is going to be controlled from TCMD's configuration, shouldn't the Properties tab be grayed out?
 
The console properties dialog has nothing to do with TCMD (nor is there any way for TCMD to control it).

The font size used in a TCC console window is controlled by the console host. Unless you're using the FONT command, TCC does not know or care what font the console host is using to display output in a console window.

The font size used in a TCMD tab window is controlled by TCMD, and it ignores any settings you defined in the console properties.

If you're not using the FONT command somewhere (like in your TCSTART), then you probably have different font size settings for (1) all consoles, and (2) an override just for TCC consoles. Again, all handled by the console host, not TCC or TCMD.
