I really need to increase the font size these days and I cannot find

 

  • I really need to increase the font size these days and I cannot find
    a setting that affects the contents of HTML contents. I guess there should be 
    some % number setting somewhere ?

        Hi,
    if you mean when reading HTML mails, then you can Ctrl+MouseWheel to
    change the zoom temporarily, or you can limit the minimum font size in
    Edit->Preferences->Mail Preferences->General tab->Message Display
    section->Minimum Font Size option. Evolution used to set it, but I
    removed it for the 3.38.0.
        Bye,

    P.S.: a side note: Gmail seems to understand "Normal" font size as
    "small" for the rest of the world, which makes it hard to read when
    people change the font size in the Gmail's web UI. No idea whether it's
    your case too, this is just one place I noticed it with (reported to
    Google weeks ago, no response from them yet).

    Minimum Font Size works for me :) Please add back..
    Maybe some default zoom, like firefox has, instead ?

    The control+Mouse think is a bit fiddly to do every time.

        Hi,
    there's nothing to be added back from my point of view. Users have the
    option fully under their control now. The option is not about the zoom,
    it's really about the minimum font size. Quoting from the WebKitGTK
    documentation:

      The minimum font size in pixels used to display text. This setting
      controls the absolute smallest size. Values other than 0 can
      potentially break page layouts.

    Thus that Evolution forced its own value there was kind of a bad idea.

    The other font settings (above this Minimum Font Size option in the
    Preferences) can influence the default font size, from which are
    derived other sizes (unless the HTML contains absolute sizes).

    I'd rather not add an option for "the default zoom".

    Right, it was just an suggestion but I though you had removed something,
    like Minimum font size?

    Also, I just noted that Min font size didn't really work for HTML mails(from Outlook),
    still at original size. Should not min font size affect all HTML mail, regardless
    of abs. font size?

        Hi,
    no, I did not remove anything, I only moved it in a way that users have
    control over it.

    Works for me, with an Undelivered message notification from the server.
    I tried with value 50, which made the text super-large. Remember, it's
    pixels. If you are on hiDPI, then maybe the value should be larger. In
    any case, the drawing is handled by WebKitGTK, thus if anything doesn't
    work it might be a question for them. Evolution only sets the value.

    One idea I saw in a phone mail client that seemed to work well combines
    minimum font and zoom.

    Zoom is applied until the smallest font is at least the minimum size.
    Everything else gets bigger. This preserves the page layout at the
    expense of scrolling, but the user is of course able to use pinch-zoom
    to see the entire message.

    That might be a good option for Evolution if someone is reworking the
    HTML display code.

    I am afraid that I do not understand fully. The possibility to specify a minimum font size for
    displaying HTML mails in Evolution was removed in order to allow users "control over it"?

    How do users now have "control over it"?

    I am using Evolution on Manjaro Linux (xfce) - is there some setting, for example in dconf, that I
    can adjust?

    Thank you very much and kind regards.

        Hi,
    just navigate to Edit->Preferences->Mail Preferences->General tab and
    near the top, where you can override the font settings, is added an
    option named "Minimum Font Size: [xxx] (in pixels)". My quotes just for
    clarity, yours for... something else.

Order of Events


Phillip B. Williams

First, he taught us to use the dead as shawls
in the viscous winter escorting his arrival.
Next, he taught us to forget the dead
were dead, our dead, and dead because of a wager
we did not consent him to make with the thin-lipped
savior of his own pantomime. Third, he delivered
on promises that blew off the tops of homes
in places whose names he could not pronounce.
Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown1
forced to fit a quiet country that has no need

for a crown. Where once was honey unhived
competition. The drones meant for war
prepared for war. We dusted our shoulders
of Shadows’ silent reconnaissance, surveilled
as practice for a slaughter we did not consent to.
The royal parade pride’s malady stomped
its sequence through beat drums of human skin
from which emanated a rhythm impossible
to decipher. I too would shake my ass
to the sound of stars falling night-
wise into a pit of myth-bent nomenclature
if the names sounded like home. Under eroding
circumstances, this kingdom could become home.
Under eroding circumstances my gasp
has become home enough, love not
consented to yet detected from beneath
my mindless right hand pressing its devotion
to ritual over my heart, flag above waving heaven
and blood into the smoke-diffused sky I
quake my way through anthems beneath. Rockets
glaring off my breath forced to evidence I belong.
The crown is crooked. We straighten it
with vote-vapid hands. The crown sits too heavy
for the king to carry on his own. When it falls
“O say can you see,” strikes its inquisition.
My knees, summoned to straighten at the hinges
permission most questionably opens from,
strike the earth with a kiss. Could I
kneel my way to revolution?
Would that goad the king to unzip?


King Henry IV, Part Two

“How did the German people sit back and let that happen?”

 

Timor,

I know when we think about the Holocaust so many of us think, “How did the German people sit back and let that happen?”

I know I certainly have.

And I know we all like to think that if that happened today, each of us would stand up to stop it.

But the grim reality is this, a genocide is happening right now…in Chinese-occupied East Turkistan against a Muslim minority and in Planned Parenthood and other abortion facilities across America.

So, what are you doing today to speak up against genocide?

Can I make a recommendation to you?

For today, International Holocaust Remembrance Day, can you take just a few minutes to watch a short movie, Sing a Little Louder? I had the privilege to serve as co-executive producer and write the ending of the film.

This film is short but powerful as it recounts the story of one man and his church during the Jewish Holocaust.

But let me warn you, watching it will have consequences for I know no one who has watched it and remained inactive against the genocide currently occurring in our world.

After you tune in, please consider doing TWO simple things to take action:

1) Share our filmSing a Little Louderwith everyone you know on social media. Use this link: https://movietomovement.givingfuel.com/sing-a-little-louder

2) Donate to Movie to Movement today as we strive to speak out and protect the most vulnerable in our world, from the Uygher families being held in concentration camps in China to the preborn child in the womb here in America.

Until every human person has a voice and is treated with dignity, Movie to Movement and our team at the Vulnerable Peoples Project will not cease.

Thank you for standing with us.

For Them,
