Text tool options menu, where is it?

Greetings;

My text font size is microscopic, and the help shows an option menu that lets
me adjust that, but I'll be a monkey's uncle if I can find it. Anybody know
where it wandered off to in gimp-2.6.6 as supplied with Fedora 10?

Thanks.

You should have a text size button in Tool Options.
See Figure 13.170 in the online GIMP manual,
http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-tool-text.html

If you've closed your Tool Options somehow (normally it's docked
under the Toolbox), Windows->Dockable Dialogs->Tool Options
should bring it back.

That seems to have worked, at the expense of it's occupying some screen area
full time, and I wasn't aware it was tool context sensitive, neat!. And its
still there after closing and reopening Gimp.

Thank you very much, both you and Dick
