Change font on code blocks used in messages????

[Anonymous]

Would you please consider changing this font used to display raw code samples here on the website? I find it hard to read for several reasons...

It is a pretty large font and it often requires wrapping to fit each line in the web browse, and it is in italics, which is *never* how we see real code, and it is bold which is never how we see real code.

I think a mono spaced font, without bold, and bout 1 size smaller would be much better.

I think this:

Looks better than this:

Matt,
I have changed the style.
- no longer italic
- smaller font
- line height has been reduced.
Does it look better now ?

Code: Select all

Function Start as Void
? "Does This Look Better Now ?"
Return

I think it is indeed better now!

[lumberjack]

I second that!

Yes. Now only reducing the tab width is left...
Ah, could the left column with avatar/name be changed to a "top line" ? A lot of screen estate occupied for no real gain...

Robert - much better.

Thanks

Karl,
I can send you the CSS. Then you can figure out how to change that <g>.

Robert,
now, the tab width should be doable.
Changing the layout, ahem, is harder .
Thought, there might be another theme available...

Karl,
There IS no tab width in web pages afaik.
If you see a wide tab then the author has inserted many spaces
