Add zoom control and font changing option to code editor

ziaonline1 Public · Sep 26 2024

Idea Summary

An options can be provided to developers to set the font size and font for code editor attached to different APEX components.

Use Case
While working on smaller screen sizes it is difficult to have the same code reading and writing experience comparatively on larger screens. 

Preferred Solution (Optional)
Either an option to zoom the code or increase the font size can be provided by a button in the current toll bar or under the settings menu on the code editor

This is planned for a future APEX release.

    In the editor, you can use the CTRL + SHIFT + P shortcut to open the command palette. If you search “zoom” you will find 3 commands:

    • Editor Font Zoom In
    • Editor Font Zoom Out
    • Editor Font Zoom Reset

    Unfortunately, the zoom level is not saved and is therefore lost when you exit the page.

    @andrea galizzi it really would be nice to visually expose such editor controls, and have such defaults be a user preference!

    However, I just learned today we can right-click on the editor and see these shortcuts, as well has F1 being a keystroke to quickly get to options.
