[Keyman Developer] Font size and settings not applying to Code view of Touch Layout Editor

[mcdurdin]

Describe the bug
The Code view of the Touch Layout Editor in Keyman Developer 11 does not appear to inherit the right font settings.

From https://community.software.sil.org/t/enlarge-text-size-in-code-editor/2070:

When I am working on a touch layout the Code editor in Keyman Developer is taxing my eyesight. There must be a way to enlarge the text I can not find it.

A workaround is to right-click, select Command Palette, search for 'Font' to change the size. However, this is not sufficient because it doesn't change all fonts in use, only the quoted text font size.

A better workaround: you can press F12 to bring up the Developer Tools Console, and paste in the following code snippet and press Enter:

editorGlobalContext.setFonts({
  codeFont: {name:'Consolas', size:'16pt'},
  charFont: {name:'Consolas', size:'16pt'}
});

You can of course tweak those font names and sizes to match your needs.
