Trying to get ProFontWindows size 8 (http://www.tobias-jung.de/seekingprofont/) in Firebug.  I've swapped Firefox's default monospace font to ProFont.  Then I've tried to set extensions.firebug.textSize to 8 to get it sized "correctly" in Firebug.  When I change the value to anything but 0, all text disappears from Firebug.  Change back to 0, and the text is back, but at FF's default 9 (or whatever size I set it to -- 9 was a bit too small everywhere else).

I considered hacking css, and I found this on changing the command-line font: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/firebug/V_TU9Ekrgyk/p-28472Qrd4J
... but I can't for the life of me figure out where the Script tab window's font is.

I'm using 1.11.4 on FF 22.0.

Any ideas?  Thanks.

That doesn't relate to the font, it also happens when you have Courier New set as monospace font. 8 is simply an invalid setting for extensions.firebug.textSize. The value doesn't relate to points or any normal font size, it's an index for a predefined zoom factor. I clarified that in the Firebug preferences wiki page and fixed the bug when it's set to an invalid value.

Sebastian --

Thanks for the reply and clarification.  My apologies.

Just to push my luck, would you also (or would someone else) know the location where I would set font-size for the script window in css?  I'll play around in firebug.css some more.

Thanks again,

Ruffin Bailey

The Script panel uses the general font-size set for all panels in panelbase.css. Though note that you can simply change the text size within Firebug via Ctrl++ and Ctrl+- as well as via Firebug menu > Text Size > Increase Text Size/Decrease Text Size.
