Customizable Shortcut for Text Size commands


Posted on Nov 17, 2010 by Swift Elephant

There is no shortcut key available for "increase text size", "decrease text size" or "normal text size". This causes the user to have to repeatedly navigate the menu in order to use these commands.

Add these shortcuts.

Test 1: Click main Firebug menu, "Text Size" option. See that "Increase Text Size", "Decrease Text Size" and "Normal Text Size" have a default shortcut key listed.

Test 2: Open the Firebug panel, and press the default shortcut keys for "Increase Text Size", "Decrease Text Size" and "Normal Text Size", and verify that the text in the Firebug window changes size accordingly.

Test 3: Browse to "about:config" in Firefox and verify that there are customizable keys made available at "extensions.firebug.key.shortcut.increaseTextSize", "extensions.firebug.key.shortcut.decreaseTextSize", and "extensions.firebug.key.shortcut.normalTextSize".

Test 4: Change the bindings of "extensions.firebug.key.shortcut.increaseTextSize", "extensions.firebug.key.shortcut.decreaseTextSize", and "extensions.firebug.key.shortcut.normalTextSize", and test shortcut functionality as in Test 2.

Browser: Firefox (any version) Firebug version: 1.7

Added this in r8486. Works like the Firefox shortcuts, just additionally press Shift. So Ctrl+Shift++ for increasing, Ctrl+Shift+- for decreasing and Ctrl+Ins (=Ctrl+Shift+Numpad0) for resetting the text size.
