[dinhvankhoi-developer]

Copilot có thể có phần setting về font-size riêng được không , nó lớn hơn 1 tý (có thể là 30px - 40px) , vì thanh bên của tôi rất nhiều extension hỗ trợ liên quan , tôi phóng to càng nhiều để copilot có chữ lớn , thì phần code nhìn rất xấu , có thể thiết lập phần setting copilot tuỳ chỉnh kích thước chữ được không ?

Can Copilot have its own font-size settings, slightly larger (maybe 30px - 40px), because I have many sidebar extensions that support related features, and I zoom in a lot for Copilot to have larger text, but then the code portion looks ugly. Is it possible to customize the font size in Copilot settings?

[roblourens]

The copilot font size is the same as all other workbench text. You can customize the codeblock text size with chat.editor.fontSize, but the rest of the reply text should match the workbench- why do you want it to be a different size than other workbench elements?

I already commented in #83, but since this issue is open I’d like to support it here too. The problem is that Copilot uses way more text than anywhere else in VSCode where the Workbench font is used. It’s okay to squint or go closer to the screen for a second or two, but not if you’re reading complex explanations for several minutes. That’s why more users feel the need to increase the font size in Copilot itself (but ultimately, the more elegant solution would be a customizable workbench font-size across VSCode, because other plugins suffer from the same issues.)

@roblourens, I would LOVE to have this feature. Personally, I'd like to have my CoPilot chat window to have a larger font-size than the rest of the other elements in the IDE to make it easier to read without having to increase everything. I currently have the ability to +/- the font size of my code editor without effecting the rest of the fonts in the IDE, which is hugely convenient.

chat.editor.fontSize

This didn't work for me. It only changed the fontSize of certain elements within the CHAT: GITHUB COPILOT tab/window, but not the entire text output there.

I think https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-copilot-release/issues/83 is a better issue to track this, so just switching to that one
