I have a small RCP application with only views so far (no need yet to have editors).

I want to do the following two things:

1. To change the size of the font (smaller or larger). When this menu option is selected then everything displayed in the views to have the new font size (the application menu does not change it's font size).
I have seen something similar to this in the Welcome screen but unfortunately the menu plug-in spy cannot tell me how it is implemented (unable to find source for class org.eclipse.ui.internal.intro.impl.presentations.BrowserIntr oPartImplementation$ReduceAction).

2. To change the font of the application (keeping the current font size). When this is selected then the whole application will use the new font.
I added a FontFieldEditor to my preferences page but I do not know how to propagate the font change to my application.

So can you tell me where to look in order to achieve the above two points?

Time is what you make of it.
