font size in Text Comparison

In previous versions of Logos, I found the Text Comparison tool helpful as I teach seminary classes; I can show how different translations have rendered the Greek & Hebrew. However, in L4 (including B8), there is no way to scale up the font in the resource panel. Where all other resource windows give you that handy slider to change the text size, the Text Comparison window does not have that. The default font is way too small to use in a class.

I believe this just hasn't made it yet. It is in the works.

I don't have a Mac, but I assume a work around you might be able to use is to keep a version of program settings on your shortcut bar that has an increase on the font size or program scaling and another shortcut with the normal view. Then just click back and forth between larger and smaller font.

Jerry, good suggestion, but the Text Comparison tool does not respond to changes made to the "Default Font" settings either.

Sorry, I wasn't sure how Logos worked in Mac. It doesn't work that way in windows either if you access text comparison by the F7 key, but it does work if you have text comparison in a pane.
