Problem or Use Case

The Hermes desktop app on macOS has no way to adjust font size or zoom level.

Standard macOS zoom shortcuts (Cmd+Plus, Cmd+Minus, Cmd+0) do not work. Trackpad pinch-to-zoom does not work. There is no font size or zoom setting in config.yaml under the display section.

On high-DPI or large displays, the default text size is too small for comfortable use with no workaround available.

Proposed Solution

Requested fix: add font size or zoom control via one or both of:

A config.yaml setting under display (e.g. display.font_size or display.zoom) An in-app zoom control accessible via keyboard shortcut or settings menu Platform: macOS Hermes version: v0.15.1
