Is there any command to change font size in the platform? [message #336337]

Hello,folks!

In Eclipse 3.5,
There is a font size change feature on the welcome view.
Is there similar feature in Eclipse?
In Japan, people want to use Eclipse during presentation,
They want to change font to adjust on the projector at the presentation.
Yes, I know the plug-in Font Size Changer for this purpose.

I would like to do this in default Eclipse.
Could someone suggest an idea for this use case?

Hi,

Look in Window->Preferences->General->Appearance->Colors and Font

select the target ou want to change :
like Basic->text Font thne click Change and choose your font ;)

Like that you need to change various and multiple fonts by hand (not so
much finally) I don't kniow if we can change all in one time.

hope this will help

Thank you for reply and tell me how to change font size at
Preferences,Aurélien.

I'm looking for how to change font's size using short-cut.
Do you know some OS supports zoom-in and zoom-out using short-cut?
I want to do this on Eclipse in the presentation.
Because sometimes I explain some code in the presentation with my friends.
Someone will say "Excuse me,Could you change font size to be more bigger?I
can't read these code."
"OK. I'll change it...".
I want to change the size using short-cut,because it is smart!

How do you think this? Is it new Eclipse's enhancement?
