keepassxc is a Qt5 application and honours Qt font settings. Under XFCE,
I use qt5ct and set the environment variable QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct
Huh. If I run it from a terminal emulator it looks fine, but if XFCE
launches it the text is tiny. Looks like QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME isn't being
set. Which means something is running a not-login shell, something between
startx and xfwm. It's defined in ~/.profile. Any ideas?
~/.profile is only sourced when bash is run as a login shell, which is not
the case when XFCE starts. To set environment variables for applications
started by XFCE, add lines before the last line in ~/.config/xfce4/xinitrc
That file doesn't exist, but this one might work:

I put it in there and removed it from ~/.profile, so we'll see the next time
I log into X.
