How to select the font and font size for TortoiseSVN Diff/Merge utility text area?

[Alexand...@gmx.de]

Hello,

I have a c source file with a print statements of this sort:
printf("%.0lf MB/s, %.1lf %% progress\n", dDataRate, dProgress);

When viewing this in the diff utility the given line has an issue for me:
The number "one" and the lower case letter "L" are looking totally the same.

I would like to change the assumed default font "Courier New" to "Consolas" because the depiction of these two characters will be better. Where to find those setting? (I already tried all font settings i found in the main options dialog of TortoiseSVN - but achieved no effect.)

Regards, Alex.

PS: Aside to the font setting there might further be the font size selection. Me and maybe a few others might want to find this as well because using the mouse wheel on the TortoiseSVN Diff/Merge window has no effect at all, regardless which shift/control/alt key i am hitting during the wheel turning.

 TortoiseMerge has its own settings dialog.

File->Settings

then select the font there.

As for the mouse wheel: it works fine. Unless you have some mouse-wheel tool installed that "translates" the messages - such tools are only needed if you have apps that don't recognize the mouse wheel themselves. So I recommend to deinstall such tools.

Thanks for your answer. I found it.

I now ticked "Consolas" and it has the desired visual difference between "one" and lower-case-"L".

I think i had a GUI understanding problem - the ribbon buttons in Diff/Merge were not serving the purpose

and the small drop down menu (for ribbon customisation) did not offer any settings (or maybe i just overlooked such a button option).

The very top-left embedded icon was never clicked by me as i understood it as /decoration/ (such as the Firefox title bar could be decarted by "personas")

but in fact its a _variant_ of the "File" menu with open options and even the option for generation of diff files (yes, i never saw that...)
