New behavior in iTerm2 - Increasing font size in one tab doesn't carry to the next

[Feoh]

Folks;

Inefficient though it may be, a fairly standard workflow for me has
been to open iTerm, adjust the font size to where I want it, and then
Cmd-T to open new tabs as needed.

In the past, my new, bigger font would carry over into the new tabs I
opened, but in iTerm2, when I open a new tab, I get the default tiny
font size.

Is there any way to make it revert to the old behavior? Otherwise I
love iTerm2 so far!

Thanks!

This is a feature, not a bug :). In iTerm 0.x, every tab had the same font. iTerm2 relaxes that restriction. After setting the font size, if you do cmd-i and then click Copy Preferences to Profile, then all your tabs will update (and you won't have to adjust it again).

I have a similar use-case to the original poster, but I think there's definite value to making an option (cmd-shift-+ perhaps, instead of just cmd-+  ?) to have font resizes affect all tabs in the current window; I often enlarge one window to work paired with someone, and it'd be awesome to keep all of the row x col geometry of that window's tabs remain the same as one of them resizes.

Well I just used this now and it works
