Description

概述 | Summary

This ticket proposes the addition of a user-configurable font size option within the existing Launcher Font section under Settings. At present, the launcher allows for font selection but does not offer granular control over font size. Introducing a font size adjustment feature would improve accessibility and enhance the user experience by enabling individuals to tailor the interface to their visual preferences, 100%. I would kindly ask that this functionality be considered for inclusion in a future update.

Thanks a lot for your time and consideration regarding this matter

原因 | Reason

Improve accessibility, enhance user experience, reduce eye strain and a lot.

详情 | Description

This feature could be introduced by adding a numerical input field or a slider control within the Settings > Launcher Font panel, allowing users to select a font size (e.g. points or pixels) within a reasonable range. A default value would be retained to ensure backwards compatibility, and the setting could be stored in the launcher's existing configufile
