Change the default min font size to something legible

Issue #281 closed
Robert Leach created an issue

USE CASE: WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?

Be able to read labels upon first running TreeView or after a preferences reset.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE AN ISSUE (OR TRIGGER A NEW FEATURE)

  1. Reset preferences
  2. Open a large data file (e.g. 6kx6k)
  3. Hover the cursor over the matrix

CURRENT BEHAVIOR

The default minimum font size is 5, which is not legible on my screen.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

I'd like to be able to read the default minimum font size. That is the intent of the whizzing labels feature - allow readable labels at any zoom level.

DEVELOPERS ONLY SECTION SUGGESTED CHANGE (Pseudocode optional)

Change the default minimum font size to at least 8, which is conventionally the minimum legible font size. Personally, I'd prefer 12, but at least 8 is legible.

    It appears that the default was changed to 11. It's not a standard font size, but it is legible. Marking as closed since this change is in master.
