(reported by Ferdinand Koch):

Currently there is no option in the GUI to change the preferred hash algorithms.
For example when signing your own keys.

I understand that SHA1 is a security risk when used to sign your own key...

Kleopatra will only expose the values that are settable through gpgconf. Messing with preferred hash algorithms is nothing a user should do as the defaults are thought through and discussed. Mostly such changes come from bad recommendations. So the GUI / gpgconf does not offer this prominently as we don't want to create problems for users.
