Summary

Feature Request: Adjustable Font Size

Problem

Many users, especially elderly people or those with visual impairments, find the current font size in the QClaw UI too small to read comfortably. This prevents them from using the application effectively.

Proposed Solution

Add a font size adjustment option in the UI settings (Appearance or Preferences). Options could include:

  • A font size slider (e.g., Small / Medium / Large / Extra Large)
  • Keyboard shortcuts for quick zoom (e.g., Ctrl++ / Ctrl+-)
  • Respects Windows display scaling settings

User Scenario

Users with declining eyesight need larger text to:

  • Read chat messages clearly
  • Navigate the interface confidently
  • Use the application independently

Priority

This is an accessibility feature that significantly impacts usability for a vulnerable user group.

Thank you for considering this feature!

Problem to solve

As a user with declining eyesight, I find the QClaw UI font size too small to read comfortably, which prevents me from using the application independently. There is currently no way to adjust font size in the settings or via keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl++ / Ctrl+-). This is an accessibility barrier for elderly users and people with visual impairments.

Proposed solution

Can I adjust the font size by keyboard like chrome explorer?

TL;DR

Implementing a font size adjustment option in the QClaw UI settings or adding keyboard shortcuts for quick zoom can improve accessibility for users with visual impairments.

Guidance

  • Consider adding a font size slider in the UI settings (Appearance or Preferences) with options like Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large.
  • Implement keyboard shortcuts for quick zoom, such as Ctrl++ and Ctrl+-, to allow users to adjust font size easily.
  • Ensure that the font size adjustment respects Windows display scaling settings to provide a consistent user experience.
  • Evaluate the feasibility of adding a keyboard shortcut similar to Chrome's font size adjustment feature.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without more context, but the solution may involve modifying the UI settings and implementing event listeners for keyboard shortcuts.

Notes

The proposed solution focuses on improving accessibility for users with visual impairments, and its implementation may require consideration of various factors, including UI design, user experience, and technical feasibility.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by implementing a font size adjustment option in the UI settings or adding keyboard shortcuts for quick zoom, as this can significantly improve the usability of the application for users with visual impairments.
