Resizing font in Code::Blocks

Question

I've recently started using Code::Blocks IDE and am trying to get comfortable working in here.

Is it possible to change the font size using keyboard shortcuts, without the numeric keypad? I accidentally struck Ctrl+CapsLock and the font minimized.

Is there something similar to increase the font size?

Answer 1

simple.....in codeblocks 13.12, you have to do according to the below sequence:

settings>editor>editor settings(press 'choose')>here u will get font/font style/size....and selecting your preferable size..>ok...

Answer 2

Thank you for your question and for using code-blocks IDE.

You should be able to just push CTRL + to increase text size, if not, look below.

To increase/decrease font size in the editor, you can either:

• hover with your mouse over the editor, push and hold CTRL and scroll mouse wheel up or down

• use the menu -> edit -> special commands -> zoom -> in | out | reset

• or you can install the code-blocks plugins for creating your own keyboard shortcuts, if none of the above will do by: console command: "sudo apt-get install codeblocks-contrib", restart code-blocks and in menu -> settings -> editor -> keyboard shortcuts -> edit -> special commands -> zoom -> in -> new shortcut -> ...

hope this helps and answers your question
