What Font Does Sample Ecore Editor Use? [message #1851142]

I use one of the auto-generated ecore based editors in my plugin.

I now have a user asking how to change the font and font size and I can't figure out what font in the preferences section effects the size of that editor.

FWIW, I've never been asked this.

I've deployed my plugin as an Eclipse build that runs the workbench app. Perhaps there is some plugin regarding preferences I haven't included? Changing nearly all the fonts in the Basic and Java section does not affect the font size in my auto-generate EMF editor.

Linux 64 build.

Several Google searches mention CSS hacks that other searches say is out of date.

The most recent one I've seen refers to a font setting under:
View and Editor Folders -> Tree and Table font for Views

Unfortunately, none of my Eclipse installs have that Tree and Table font item. (I have some installs up to 2020_06)

We don't actually set any fonts, so it's just the default as controlled by "View and Editor Folders -> Tree and Table font for Views" which is contributed by this plugin:

https://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.ui.git/tree/bundles/org.eclipse.ui/plugin.xml#n1612

So if you don't see that preference, you'd need to include this plugin in your installation.

Thanks!

That is one mysterious plugin as it's not in any of my installs up to 2020_06 and I can't find any place to download the plugin from.

Looks like it made its first appearance in 2020_09 according to another forum.
