Ability to change font size

[joonro]

I use quicklook to look at text files a lot, and currently I found the font to be too small.

It would be great if quicklook supports the ability to set the preferred font size.

Thank you!

I use quicklook to look at text files a lot, and currently I found the font to be too small.

Huh.., I myself find it too big!! Guess this really goes to prove the "To Each His Own" adage even true-er.
Anyway, I have a suggestion for a quick fix on this issue, before implementing your own robust solution;

1st_ I should/must preface my suggestion by stating that I know nothing of coding apps/programs, although I am however an intermediate webdesign learner [js, css, html*], so I can at-least read and to an extent understand the workings of '.cs' files.

2nd_on to the suggestion., from reading the TextViewerPanel.cs file, on L56:
FontFamily = new FontFamily(TranslationHelper.Get("Editor_FontFamily"));,

the TextViewer Plugin gets its default font from the Translations.config file__e.g for english users, L5:
<Editor_FontFamily>Consolas</Editor_FontFamily>

TL_DR:

@xupefei ,
'Knowing' this, I was thinking that maybe inside Translations.config, we could have another line above/below/within the '</Editor_FontFamily>' tag to define/set font-size, which can then be similarly referenced within TextViewerPanel.cs. i.e;

Translations.config:
<Editor_FontSize>16</Editor_FontSize>

TextViewerPanel.cs:
FontSize = new FontSize(TranslationHelper.Get("Editor_FontSize"));

OR
Maybe we can have [another separate OR one unifying(+the existing Translations.config)] .config file, serving to define default properties e.g bgcolor, fgcolor, lineSpacing/Height, fontFamily, font-size, etc.., of which the 1st 3 can be overridden by file_specific '.xshd' Syntax Files.

I hope my understanding &/ judgement was at-least 80% sound and my suggestion plausible enough to warrant a fix,
Cheers Mate, and Happy Coding!!

Put it into the config is certainly an option, but modifying it will be impossible for Windows Store users. In fact, I am thinking about to have CTRL+Scroll for adjusting the font size. But I thought it would be a little overkill… Cheers, Paddy

This is a must-have feature, please consider supporting it

The default font size is too small to read
