I'm running Oxygen on a Mac and have added WindowBuilder. The WindowBuilder editor displays in a small font. I would like to increase its font size. But I have not been able to figure out how do so. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. (By the way, I can change the font size on the Java editor that is part of Oxygen.)

Which "editor" do you mean? Can you provide a screenshot of it?

I having the problem with the editor that is in WindowBuilder. It's font is tiny and I can't figure out how to change its size. I tried to take a screenshot as you requested, but I'm new to Macs. I couldn't do it. Nevertheless, I assure you the the font size is very small. Many thanks for your help.

OS X has an utility called Grab. It has instructions in the Help pages.

Hi there,

the problem is the same on Linux using Oxygen.1 + recent WindowBuilder.

I can change the font size for the regular Java Editor in Prefs / GEneral / Appearance / Colors and Fonts / Basic / Text Font. This works fine for now SWING classes (as well as the common CTRL-+, CTRL-- shortcuts).

The font size in the Source tab of a Window builder file is not affected by the above setting, nor do above shortcuts work.

For teaching my classes, I would highly appreciate the shortcuts to work as well for the WindowBuilder editor (it worked on Neon, I guess).

Bets regards
Sven

In case anyone still has this issue, the WindowBuilder font size is located at:
Window > Preferences > General > Appearance > Colors & Font > Basic > Text Font.
