Feature Request: Ability to Set Different Zoom Levels for Each Editor Group or Window #234360

Open sashalevo opened 21 hours ago

sashalevo commented 21 hours ago

Hello,

I’d like to request a feature that allows users to set different zoom levels (or scaling) for each editor group or window in VS Code. Currently, the zoom level applies globally to the entire editor, which can be limiting when working with split editors or multiple groups, especially for users with different visual needs for different file types or layouts.

Proposed Feature:

Allow individual zoom levels for each editor group in split editor mode. Add a setting (or command) to adjust zoom levels for specific groups or tabs independently. (Optional) Make this configurable via settings.json for persistent customization. Use Case: This feature would benefit developers working with different file types (e.g., Python and HTML) or those who need enhanced visibility for certain sections of their workspace. It would also provide a better experience for users who frequently work with split editors and need tailored visual preferences for each section.

Thank you for considering this request!

Best regards, [Sahib Alizada]
