Description WANG, Xing 2004-04-15 16:12:28 UTC 
In the Evolution main window, "Main menu -> View -> Text Size" shows
"Smaller Ctrl-0, Larger Ctrl-8, Original Size Ctrl-9"

This is totally unintuitive. "Smaller Ctrl--, Larger Ctrl-+/=, Original
Size Ctrl-0" would be better and more consistent with other apps (e.g.,
Mozilla)

In a separate mail viewer window, "Main menu -> View -> Text Size" shows
the same thing, but "ctrl--" and "ctrl-+/=" work too. Note that "ctrl--"
and "ctrl-+/=" don't work for the preview pane in the evo main window.

What a mess!

Reassigning to UI team so they decide.

i suspect the shortcuts are to be the same as outlook.

anyway yeah this is ui, moving to ui.

This is the same as 1.4 and Ctrl-+/- do work on the widget itself.
Comment 4 André Klapper 2005-07-19 18:23:36 UTC 
this seems to be fixed in 2.3.5.1, though 2.2.x still uses 8,9,0 as shortcuts.
