Wish, Lister keys: font size; Find backward / forward only

Post by *Ralph »

It would be convenient to have a key to increase the current Lister font size, and a key to reduce the font size. Maybe Ctrl+Gray + and Ctrl+Gray - could be used. Changing the font size through Options, Configuration, etc., takes a number of keystrokes or mouse clicks. I can select 3 different font sizes with the font/character set keys A (ANSI), S (ASCII), and V (Variable width), but I would like finer control. I frequently change font sizes to display a lot of information, while making the characters as legible as practical.

I would like to step through all possible font sizes when using the keys requested above, or when using the Configuration font size text box and slider. The font size text box does not permit half sizes (such as 6.5) allowed by some other software, and the slider does not show very small font sizes.


It would be nice if Lister had a key that always performed a Find Next Backward, and a key that always performed a Find Next Forward. Although I can reverse the direction of Find Next with Ctrl+F3, and then continue in the new direction with F3 or F5, or keep Finding back and forth one step with Ctrl+F3, I may lose track of the direction when I
need to repeatedly Find Next back and forth more than one step. I would like to keep focusing my attention on the contents of the file on the screen, and Find Next in the absolute direction that I choose by pressing one key.

Thanks

:) Hello !
- I support this request too. To change the font-size on the spot when needed should be handy.
