Alacritty: Apply config changes on the fly

Created on 7 Mar 2018  路  3Comments  路  Source: alacritty/alacritty

I know it's possible to do this with colour, but is it possible to do it with other options as well? I'm primarily thinking about font settings like changing the font size.

You can change the font size on the fly by using the keybinds for that. Currently fonts are actually the only thing that is not live reloaded and I wouldn't expect that to be implemented until #957 is accepted and implemented.

I'm gonna close this issue for now, if you're interested in seeing this land, please leave a comment on the font configuration RFC.

I don't see the live reload to work at all with alacritty. I don't know why that.

@cata0309 make sure that you're using the right config. You can use alacritty -v to find out the config, also it doesn't apply to any setting. You can try changing background color, since it the most noticeable one.
