      Description

      Situation: In the Graph tab, when a user loads a graph a Y-axis label appear to the right of the track label. This Y-axis can be toggled on/off in the Graph tab. However, the Y-axis font size cannot be altered. On larger screens the Y-axis label can appear too small.

      Task: Implement a way to adjust the size of the Y-axis font.

      Suggestions for how to modify the UI:

      Preference window:

      • Implement a "right-click" (context) menu so that when users right-click on the y-axis, they see a menu that says: 'Change y-axis font size"
      • When they choose this option, the IGB Preferences window opens showing a new tab: "Y-axis Options"
      • Add an option: "Y-axis font size" and enable users to: enter any value they want, or select from some presets.
      • If multiple graphs are selected when the user right-clicks, all will be changed.

      Graph tab:

      • Add a new component to the Graph tab that allows changing the y-axis

      These are only two designs. You should attempt to improve on them. Evaluate them with actual people before you pick something to implement.

      The UI should be guessable to power users and novice users, and there should be as few clicks / interactions as possible to achieve the goal.

          It might also make sense to add the ability to change the font size to the Tracks tab in Preferences window.
