Title: Changing Console Font Size
Post by: ogenami on December 01, 2016, 08:34:17 PM

Hello everyone,

i am looking for a way to change console font size(windows), i've already tried to use "SetCurrentConsoleFontEx" function but it didn't work for me, is there an alternative?

EDIT: Not the actual code but a simple instance, after calling the function font size doesn't change, i guess problem about the "FaceName" member of the "CONSOLE_FONT_INFOEX" structure, i couldn't find the correct data type for "WCHAR"

Code Select

.386
.model flat, stdcall
option casemap:none

includelib \masm32\lib\kernel32.lib

STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE equ <-11>
COORD STRUCT
	X WORD ?
	Y WORD ?
COORD ENDS
CONSOLE_FONT_INFOEX STRUCT
	cbSize DWORD 24
	nFont DWORD 0
	dwFontSize COORD <16, 12>
	FontFamily DWORD 0
	FontWeight DWORD 400
	FaceName DWORD 0
CONSOLE_FONT_INFOEX ENDS

ExitProcess PROTO dwExitCode:DWORD
GetStdHandle PROTO nStdHandle:DWORD
SetCurrentConsoleFontEx PROTO hConsoleOutput:DWORD, bMaximumWindow:DWORD, lpConsoleCurrentFontEx:PTR CONSOLE_FONT_INFOEX

.data
	fontEx CONSOLE_FONT_INFOEX <>

.code
main proc
	invoke GetStdHandle, STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE
	invoke SetCurrentConsoleFontEx, eax, 0, OFFSET fontEx
	invoke ExitProcess, 0
main endp
end main
