Public bug reported: I'm using Pluma 1.22.2 in Kubuntu 19.10.
This is a feature request to provide the ability for font-size adjustment by simply holding down your CTRL key while scrolling the mouse-wheel. I'm not talking about the printed font-size, I'm simply referring to the on-screen font-size. For example, Kate [ https://kate-editor.org/ ] has this feature and it sure is a quick way of adjusting the font-size to an exact preference in the fewest number of steps. It offers real-time feedback as you're adjusting (which is way better than alternative methods I've seen). This feature should offer enough granularity so that you never are in a situation where the available sizes seem either too big or too small, but not so granular that it take several rotations of the scroll-wheel to reach your desired font-size. I realize that Pluma is intended to be a simple text editor, and I do like it for that purpose. Yet, this is the only advanced feature I really wish it had.
