Version: 1.2.50 (using 4.00.81 (KDE 4.0.81 >= 20080527) "release 6.3", compiled sources) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.22.17-0.1-default In the "old" KDE3.5 Akregator version, one could increase the font size by 'Strg' + '+' ('Ctrl' + '+') and decrease it as well with '-'. This is a useful feature and the shortcut is consistent across programs (e.g. firefox, konqueror, okular, Adobe products ...). It would be nice if it was implemented in the new KDE4.1 version.
CTRL + mouse wheel up/down is a good alternative (and it's already implemented).
true that works, although a second shortcut (which is widely used) would do no harm. It should also be added to the view menu, as users need to find the shortcut or should be able to zoom only with the mouse. I won't need it anymore, but new users would expect it. Thanks for your advice :-)
I see that CTRL + mouse wheel doesn't change only the font size, it zooms the entire page so it doesn't fit in the window anymore. There should probably be a way to increase just the font size, as with the KDE 3.x akregator. The current situation must be problematic for people with vision impairments.
it also makes everything look kinda ugly and messes with smooth scrolling

Created attachment 35169 [details] Fix zoom This patch enables ctrl-+ and ctrl-- again to enlarge/shrink the font of the articleviewer (font != zoom). These two actions are also added to the "View" menu. Additionally actions for print (ctrl-p) and copy (ctrl-c) now also work again with shortcuts and are configurable in the shortcut configuration menu. Does someone with svn account like to review and commit that patch? :)
Many thanks for your work on this Alexander; for KDEPIM patches you should submit them to the review board (reviewboard.kde.org). If approved, and you don't have an SVN account, then someone will be able to commit the patch for you.
