Increase Font Size in Macrodroid "Popup Message" box

[mdman2021]

This is probably a simple task but alas I cannot find the answer. Very specifically, the text that Macrodroid (MD) displays in its POPUP MESSAGE boxes is too small. How can I increase the font size, in MD's POPUP MESSAGE boxes, WITHOUT manually pinching or zooming -and- WITHOUT changing the font size for the entire phone?

I only want this change to increase the the font size in message boxes that MD displays -- like POPUP MESSAGE boxes, OPTION DIALOG boxes, DISPLAY DIALOG boxes, SELECTION DIALOG boxes, etc, etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can use the custom options and html tags to increase the size.

Endercraft,

I figured out how to make the text size larger in my Popup Message by Googling something like, "How to change font size using an HTML tag" then used trial-and-error. I was hoping this forum would provide the info I needed because I am not an HTML programmer.

For others who don't know what HTML tags are, here is how I made the text size larger in my Popup Message box... When I added the MacroDroid "Popup Message" action, I typed the following on the line where it says "Pop up message":

<h1 style="font-size:4em; ">Popup Message text </h1>

Replace "Popup Message text" (shown in my example above) with your message. I'm guessing "5em" is a larger font than "4em" but "4em" is larger than the default. Now the text in the Popup Message is large enough that I can read it without my eyeglasses.

The style attribute doesn’t apply Css in Macrodroid. The size change you’re seeing comes from the “h1” tag — each heading tag “h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, and h6” have their own font-sizes (in descending order, so “h1” is the largest).

Notice <tag style=“color: red”>text</tag> doesn’t change the color of the text. Instead Macrodroid allows for <font color=“red”>text, to change the color.

This formatting is weird. Does anyone know if this supports React’s formatting?

MacroDroid doesn't support all html tag (and definitely not CSS) and as far as I know there is no plan to change that.

Update:
That formatting <font color=“red”> comes from TextView — it’s used for front end development in Android. A few examples pop-up:

<item name=“android:font color”>red</item>. (Definitely not React)
