FontSize Shortcuts (New & Updated)

Introduction

Change the font size with keyboard shortcuts.

Example

Features

You can use the following shortcuts to adjust the font size:

  • Increase font size: Ctrl/Cmd and +
  • Decrease font size: Ctrl/Cmd and -
  • Reset font size to default: Ctrl/Cmd and 0

If you are using a different keyboard layout than US QWERTY, you may have to adjust these shortcuts.

Settings

You can configure the following settings:

  • fontshortcuts.defaultFontSize: The default editor font size used for a reset. (default: 15)
  • fontshortcuts.defaultTerminalFontSize: The default terminal font size used for a reset. (default: 15)
  • fontshortcuts.step: The step for each font size increment/decrement. (default: 1)
{
  "fontshortcuts.defaultFontSize": 15,
  "fontshortcuts.defaultTerminalFontSize": 15,
  "fontshortcuts.step": 1
}

Requirements

Visual Studio Code 1.6 or higher
