font size about astroid HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @apm256, currently I read those from the system-settings, but I was thinking about making them configurable. Currently it is three settings that are relevant:

• regular interface font (gtk3/gnome) - general interface
• regular monospace font (gtk3/gnome) - thread index
• whatever webkit deems to be small and medium size fonts (this is for thread-view/email-view fonts)

So either you can try and modify the system settings and see if that does the trick or you can modify the CSS file that I use for thread-view. A possible option here is that I load/generate a user CSS style-sheet that I then superimpose on the default CSS theme (this at least is how Geary does it - which is where I ripped off the style for the email rendering).

Alternatively, if this doesn't do the trick for you I was thinking about making configurable options for that (using the defaults from the system), but I'd first like to hear in particular which setting is the problem.

Thanks for trying! I just put up a page here: http://gaute.vetsj.com/pages/astroid.html for the project and was planning on doing an alpha release soon.

Thanks for your answer.

• for the regular interface, the gtk's setting gtk-font-name does the trick
• for the css, I gave up understanding how to define "small", and I replaced all occurences of "small" by a fixed font size
• nevertheless, for the thread index, I failed to understand which settings I had to modify.

I'm eagerly waiting for the alpha release!
Best regards.

• for css; yes small is just one of a bunch of relative, pre-defined, values (http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_font_font-size.asp) for font-size. medium is another. settting to a fixed value works just as well.
• for thread-index, I read the value of: org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name. You can set it with dconf-editor or gsettings. if these are abandoned configuration options I'd be happy to update them.

Let me know if you have any other issues / suggestions!

Thank you. Everything looks OK now.
