enhancement: allow configuration of font and text size

travisfw opened this issue · comments

I like the simple, clean interface. Also I'd like ctrl-+ to increase the font size like it does in some other apps, or at least, have a menu item for it.

What for?

Uh. Comfort? Less squinting. Faster reading. Why not? The window is a small fraction of my screen. Its usage is brief. Why not be large and center, instead of small and off to the left?

Why isn't your default font size comfortable?

If you use GNOME there is an accessibility feature "Large Text".

Why not?

Because options aren't always good, and I'm not going to implement something without a clear use case.

Why not be large and center,

Commit doesn't decide where it's placed on the screen, your window manager does. https://github.com/sonnyp/Commit#open-commit-in-the-center-of-the-screen

I'm sure your WM has a shortcut to make windows bigger. See also #58

If your philosophy is to use system settings, that would be great. I tried changing "document text" font in the Gnome Tweaks tool, but it didn't make a difference. Would you support setting font size that way?

Works for me.

What's your OS/DE and how did you install Commit?

I'm on Fedora 36, and iirc I discovered Commit through the Software gui application, and installed the flatpak.

Also using Fedora 36

Try installing as user

flatpak remove re.sonny.Commit
flatak install --user re.sonny.Commit

I'm sure I'm making a rookie mistake, but what am I missing here:

$ flatpak install --user re.sonny.Commit
Looking for matches…
error: No remote refs found similar to ‘re.sonny.Commit’

I can actually see Commit in the Software app, but if I install from there it won't be --user.
