Make Eclipse use larger fonts
Authored by: soheil on Jun 14, '07 08:46:06AM

Yes, you're right, I'm really agreed with you. But, I mean another issue using eclipse on the Mac.
The default behavior of SWT is choosing the system's default font size, and some eclipse users, e.g. me, like this behavior.
If you had any experience using the Eclipse on other platforms like M$ Windows and Linux, you would see that the default font size of your platform is used as the default font size of the Eclipse. I mean Eclipse looks like other apps on your PC.
But, the first time I install the eclipse on my new MacBook, I got that the font size used by Dialog, Trees (Side bars, and perspectives) and CTabFolder titles are really smaller than any other application on my Mac, as long as the Java Editor font size is OK.
I want to change the font size used by Eclipse and make it behave like any other application without changing some of the font size options. I want to make it obey the rules on my Mac.
Removing the option mentioned in the hint, make Eclipse behave like any other application on your Mac. And I really love this ;)
