How to change the font size of the Visual Studio 2017 'Find and Replace' control? - visual-studio-2017

Note that this is NOT the dialog box, but the box that opens up in the top right corner of the file window.
I've checked the following without finding an answer. Right now the text is very tiny and difficult to make out!
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/139eef4h.aspx
: Couldn't find any instructions to adjust the font size.
Tools in Menu -> Options -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors
: Couldn't find the 'Find and Replace' control.
Enlarging the font of the editor does make the font larger, but it doesn't work because the size of the editor font becomes huge before the control's font is readable.

So your best option might be to go into settings and change window.zoomLevel to 1. This will zoom in the window and should give you the effect your looking for. I don't believe you can change menu fontSize etc.

Press ctrl, use mouse scroll to increase the overall size of text area and find and replace window. Now go to tool->options->font to set default size for text area only.

View all content inside win32 window

I cannot see text/graphics at the very bottom of my win32 window, because it extends larger than my screen can fit. Even when I go in fullscreen mode, I cannot see the bottom text.
Is there a way for me to adjust my window or zoom-out of my window in order to see the stuff at the bottom? Or am I supposed to shrink all the contents inside the window?
I'm not exactly sure what I should do, but any guidance would be appreciated. Also I'm using C++.
Thanks.
You pretty much have two options:
Add a scrollbar (Adjust the window style or add a scrollbar control)
Stretch/shrink/resize the content

How can I increase the font size in WebStorm?

The font size in the editor in WebStorm is too puny for my taste (or my eyes, I should say).
I tried to change it via Settings > Editor > Colors & BFonts > Font, which does have a "Size" edit box in the "Editor Font" section, but it is readonly.
So how can I "up" the font size? I also (first) tried Ctrl+mouseWheel, but that didn't lead to any joy in Mudville, either.
Change font size with MouseWheel
(called "zooming in the editor")
To enable changing font size in the editor
Open the Settings/Preferences dialog, expand the Editor node, and
click General.
Make sure that the setting Change font size (Zoom) with
Ctrl+MouseWheel is enabled.

For change font and font size create your own theme, then you can edit all font things
Fonts color settings: be sure you uncheck inheritance checkbox with "use inheritance attributes"
P.s pictures from phpstorm but it must work for webstorm also
You need to save a custom scheme in order to modify the font size.
Settings > Editor > Colors & Fonts
Select Save as... and name it however you please.
Once you have saved your custom scheme, you are now able to increase the font size.
In Ubuntu, go to:
File > Settings > Editor > Font
File / Settings / General
Check "Change font size (Zoom) with Ctrl + Mouse Wheel
Confirmed fix for WebStorm 10.
Go to Setting
Next In font you can change
Actual for WS 2018.x
Change font-size for interface
Change font-size for code area
This answer is for WebStorm version 2021.2.2
On the top right-hand side of the WebStorm editor you will see a setting gear icon as shown in the picture below or you can simply use the keyboard short cut Ctrl+Alt+S
After you tap on the setting option a window will open with all the different settings options, out of which you need to select the Editor option which will have the font option as shown in the image below
Now you can change the font as per your choice,
I am going to take a step ahead and include how you can increase the zoom size of the editor as well.
When I installed webstorm I was not able to increase the zoom via mouse wheel or by using the Ctrl + keyboard shortcut and this setting is in the same editor setting menu
So once you are inside the setting window go to Editor > General and in the general section you will find an option to increase the zoom via mouse wheel make sure you click apply or Ok once you select this option for the setting to take place
To add something here for the developers using the Material Theme UI. Under the Editor => Font, you'll font a link, where you can make the actual font customizations under the section called "Editor > Color Scheme > Color Scheme Font." Just in case you won't be confused as me when changing the Editor > font size, nothing happens.

Modify and customize the wxColourDialog box

I need a dialog box where I can choose colour, font format, font style, and font size. I mean using wxWidgets (need a dialog with wxColourDialog and wxFontDialog in a same dialog box).
Notice that under Windows the native font selection dialog already allows you to select the font colour too. This is not the case under the other platforms however, so you would need to use the non-native, and hence ugly, wxGenericFontDialog there if you really need to select both at once.

Create borders around controls in MFC Form

I have an MFC form, basic stuff, a few group boxes, a few text boxes, some buttons, and a list box. What I'd like to do is add a border around all of it, preferably without a group box. Like, drawing lines along the right areas. I was told this is bad to do on a dialog though. What would I need to go about doing something like that?
I am currently using MFC C++ with Visual Studio 2008.
The easiest way is to add a Picture control to the dialog and set the style to have a border only. If the control has a width or height of 0 you can get a single line. Doing it in the dialog editor will only give you positioning down to the dialog unit, if you need pixel level control you'll have to create or reposition it in OnInitDialog.

background colour of popup info box in eclipse

I am using eclipse CDT on xubuntu. It works perfectly. The only problem is that the background colour of the pop up box that appears when you put the mouse over a variable for instance will have a background colour of black.
Sometimes some of the text in this box will be black as well. I then have to select all text inside the box to read what is in there. For the life of me I cannot figure out where to change that background black colour...
Does anybody here know perhaps please.
Go to Window > Preferences and then open C/C++ > Editor and play with Source hover background. Don't forget to uncheck the System Default box to be able to change the colour.
