Synchronize the font view icon size across all opened fonts

1

Is there a way of achieving this?

Oh, I think I can answer my own question. You can do something like

Font.fontView.fontIconView().setIconHeight_(40)

This will set all fonts to the average icon size:

heights = [font.fontView.fontIconView().iconHeight() for font in Glyphs.fonts]
averageHeight = sum(heights) / len(heights)
for font in Glyphs.fonts:
	font.fontView.fontIconView().setIconHeight_(averageHeight)
4

Maybe just using the size of the current font for all others makes it easier to use:

for font in Glyphs.fonts:
	font.fontView.fontIconView().setIconHeight_(Font.fontView.fontIconView().iconHeight())

Same for the height of the preview bar, in case someone finds this useful:

for font in Glyphs.fonts:
	try:
		font.currentTab.setPreviewHeight_(Font.currentTab.previewHeight)
	except AttributeError:
		pass

FWIW, if there was a user setting to always keep the icon size synchronized for all fonts Iā€™d happily activate it. :wink:
(And for the preview bar height, too.)
