  • More Themes -- Go to support web page where users can share additional Themes.

  • Default Zoom -- Default zoom setting for new windows (100% is the default)

  • Line Spacing -- Default line height for new windows (1.0 is single-spaced, 2.0 is double-spaced, etc.)

  • Text Alignment -- Choose a default text alignment for the editor pane. NOTE: Some Themes override the default settings, in which case this preference would be ignored.

  • Default Font -- Choose a default font/size for the editor pane. NOTE: Some Themes override the default settings, in which case this preference would be ignored.

  • Change -- Change the default font

  • Maximum Full Screen Width -- Choose a maximum width in pixels for the window in full screen view -- useful for high resolution monitors. NOTE: Some Themes override the default settings, in which case this preference would be ignored.

  • Left/Right padding around text -- Choose size in pixels for whitespace to left/right of text in editor pane. NOTE: Some Themes override the default settings, in which case this preference would be ignored.

  • Typewriter Height -- Choose size (between 0.0 and 1.0) for aligning the current line of text in the editor pane. 0.5 keeps the current line in the middle. NOTE: Some Themes override the default settings, in which case this preference would be ignored.

  • Sidebar Theme -- Choose a color scheme for sidebars. Used for new windows. Yosemite Light/Dark use default macOS color schemes with a translucent effect. Aqua uses the older opaque macOS scheme. "Use Theme" uses the colors from your Composer Theme so match the sidebar to the editor pane.
