Geany: How to increase the font size of plugin MultiTerm in Geany text editor?


I have been using geany text editor quite a lot.
I have activated the plugin MultiTerm, however, the problem is the font is too small and I can't increase the font size.

Attempts:
1. select the text in MultiTerm and Cmd +
2. select the text in MultiTerm and go to View then choose Increase Font.

I searched the preference options and I was unable to find the solution.

The screenshot looks like this:enter image description here

I need a magnifier to see what the letters are there in the Multi Terminal to read them, but I assume that was not the purpose of the plugin.
If anybody has any idea the suggestion will be truly appreciated.


Solution

  • According to plugin documentation the fontsize can be changed in plugins config file:

    ~/.config/geany/plugins/multiterm/multiterm.conf

    You can tweak also background and font color.

    sample from file:

    [shell=default]
    
    # This will be the tabs default tab label and won't change unless
    # track_title is set to true.
    name=Default Shell
    
    # This is the command to fork in the VTE, leave blank for default shell
    command=sh
    
    # Make the tab's label track the VTE title
    track_title=true
    
    # Background color, foreground color and font for the VTE
    bg_color=#ffffff
    fg_color=#000000
    font=Monospace 44
