Description

  • I am on the latest Hyper.app version
  • I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate

Issue

It is common for many apps, including browsers, to be able to Zoom In / Out the contents (or increase/decrease the font size) by pressing Ctrl while scrolling the Mouse Wheel up and down.

I searched through issues related to the Zoom functionality but couldn't find a particular reason why this isn't possible with Hyper, or maybe it is but it's not working for me? Is this something that could be added?

Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Reproduce the behavior in Hyper 1.4.8 on Windows with Ctrl plus mouse-wheel scrolling, then trace the input and zoom handling. Done means Ctrl+wheel reliably increases and decreases the terminal content size, matching the requested browser-like behavior.
