Font Size Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working

[avi4now]

I'm using 9.2, in OS X 10.5.2, Intel Mac, Java 5 (default).

The Font Size keyboard shortcuts aren't working. These are the menu items under Document>>Font Size; actually, "Normal Editor Font", Cmd-0, does work. It's the other (more important) two that don't.

Hi,

After you press the "Cmd" you should be using the '+', '-' and '0' signs from the Numpad part of the keyboard.
If this does not work, can you go to the Document -> Font Size menu and check if the 'Decrease' and 'Increase' font actions have the right shortcut description?
You can change shortcuts for the actions by going to 'Options'->'Menu Shortcut keys' ordering by description and searching for 'Increase editor font' and 'Decrease editor font'.

OK, that's useful, thank you!

Those shortcuts are very unintuitive; nearly all Mac apps use the shortcuts I described for these functions. Many Mac keyboard don't even have number pads - none of mine do! So I suggest you change the defaults for the next release.

Thanks,
Avi

Hi Avi,

We will consider this for a future version.

Thanks,

Hello,

In the current version we added also the shortcuts that use the normal number keys for the actions that change the font size. The old shortcuts will work too.
