Nice feature! It only applies to packet viaw and tree view, not "byte
view", except for the 1st time you shrink the font size; but then the
font size stays small.
That's true for GTK2 only. GTK1 works fine.
The behaviour is a bug in the current implementation. As the same thing is done, when applying a font using the preferences dialog, this is an old bug, as this also didn't work when changing the font at the
preferences.

I will have a look, if I can fix it.

It runs OK on cygwin too!
That's good to know :-)

BTW: I have seen, that this change will have no effect on GTK2.0.0!
