Allow user to set zoom levels #2305

Open Xananax opened 5 years ago

Xananax commented 5 years ago

One of the best feature of browser-based apps is the capacity to zoom in and out, depending on the screen used and the quality of one's eyes.

My use case: I use itch-windows in Wine, and it doesn't take my 4k into account automatically, which results in an Itch for ants:

Of course I could probably fiddle with Wine, but it would be so much easier to just ctrl-+ my way. I personally find even the native Itch a bit too much for ants, and I would gladly push it 10%. As I age, I will probably want to zoom even more.

That's it! Very low priority, but I wanted to record it somewhere. Keep up the good work and thanks for an awesome app

@Xananax your reports are always a pleasure <3

I'm planning on releasing a new itch version "soon", because it desperately needs to be bumped to the latest Electron/Chromium to fix a bunch of display issues. I'll take a look at adding zooming in & out.

I'm also still looking into launching-games-with-wine support, promise!

I'm surprised there isn't a way for the user to control this generically for electron apps, like qt's QT_SCALE_FACTOR environment variable.
