Is it possible?

1When you change the font like this you might get a message that the active window will not be updated. Resolution: open it again. (Why I mention this is that if you just press Ok on the message you will not receive it again and a day later you will have forgotten it. And google. And find this comment.) – LosManos – 2016-05-24T07:33:07.770

5Every time I set up WinMerge I need to search for this setting. I wonder why the font settings are not part of the WinMerge options found under "Edit" -> "Options". – Andreas – 2016-09-28T11:45:58.200

Windows "clear case" to smooth fonts doesn't seem to work :-/ – Junior M – 2011-05-11T13:08:41.987

Did you try Ctrl + Mouse Wheel?

5That works. But if you restart, the setting is gone. – timbooo – 2011-05-11T12:44:00.890

Yes, indeed the setting is lost, maybe we can tweek it on Windows registry? – Junior M – 2011-05-11T12:56:25.460
