Description LiborJelinek 2011-07-25 09:08:06 UTC
Hello dear NetBeans!
I think that font used for wiki.netbeans.org is very small (now about 8pt) for today high screen resolution and also not very well legible for older or disabled people.

I recommend to increate font size to at least 10 or 12 pt.

What is your opinion?

Hi Libor

I have no power of decision on your request.

I think its fixable...

Font size used in the wiki is 0.7em (8pt).  The standard wikipedia is about 0.8em.
The font-size is set in the netbeans css file for body tag.

As template is mix sometimes pixel and em it may conduct to paragraph complicated to read also.

adding font-size: 1.14em; for #content (main.css line 207) 
if #content is only for wiki it make a computed size of 10pt

and the netbeans css 
p {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0.4em 0 0.5em;
}


... but
this may lead to font size incoherence between parts (wiki,issues,...) of the web site.
it's a lot of work to smooth cross all pages.
this decision you be community decision.

you may have a workaround by zooming 2 step in on the page you read (if using AFAN ffox,ie,chrome)

Thank you for opening this enhancement.
Best Regards.

Eric
