Stepping up text size

Post by luha »

When formatting text, I can step the size up and down with [Ctrl]+[Shift]+[.] and [Ctrl]+[Shift]+[,]. The three largest steps are 3, 4 and 6 ciceros. More and more often I need 5 cicero text. I am aware that I can get this by clicking and typing «60» in the right box, but it would be so easy to just type one more [.]. Can I have this in the next version of Atlantis? Please?

Atlantis has the "Shrink/Grow font size" commands: Ctrl+[ and Ctrl+]. These two commands change the selection font size by 1 point.

Thank you! That is a help - but I still have to press the key 12 times to go from 48pt to 60pt. I wish you could add 60pt to the pre-defined sizes. Then I would just have to press the key once.

Greetings--
There is a much simpler method. Here are the steps:
1. Select the target fragment of text.
2. Press Ctrl+Shift+P.
3. Type the desired font size (60 in your example).
4. Press "Enter" and you're done. :D
Cheers
