We're not planning to add that for the general UI. For font size, see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=475140 |
Created attachment 163392 [details] NeoChat window next to an Element window with slightly increased scale. SUMMARY Not only does NeoChat (from Flat Hub) have a seemingly smaller scale that other applications, but for a Matrix client specifically, I like to have a higher scale. People generally post short one or two sentences long messages. I don't need to have many messages on my screen at once either. Typically, I use such a client maximized or on half of a 1440p screen. All this together makes it extremely wasteful to me to have so much information displayed on screen at once; I much rather have stuff a lot easier to read. Personally I would love to be able to change the entire scale of NeoChat. On Element and Discord I can just press 'Ctrl' + '+' until I am satisfied with the scale, since they are essentially just websites. SUGGESTION I would suggest adding a setting, for adjusting the scale. Additionally, it could be nice for NeoChat to react to 'Ctrl' + '+', like an internet browser, since that is what other NeoChat-like applications like Element or Discord do. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Flat Hub NeoChat commit 91954c7c9c21f05a39ec62d4dd371768b0c3503cd31a0f65c94c46905ef5f stable version 23.08.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Personally the low scale makes NeoChat unattractive for me on desktop, unless I changed the scale using command line wizardry which I assume is possible. I do use and like NeoChat on my postmarketOS mobile phone ;)
