Themes & Appearance

NyaTerm lets you tune the workspace appearance in fairly fine detail, including UI theme, terminal theme, fonts, and cursor behavior.

UI theme and terminal theme​

In Settings → Appearance, you can configure these separately:

  • UI Theme — controls the app-wide color scheme
  • Terminal Theme — controls terminal colors, or can follow the UI theme

If you just want a quick theme switch, you can also use View → Theme from the top menu.

Fonts and font size​

In Settings → Appearance, you can adjust:

  • Font family — primary font plus multi-level fallback fonts
  • Terminal font size
  • UI font size

NyaTerm includes these built-in fonts:

  • JetBrains Mono
  • Noto Sans SC Variable
  • Inter

System-installed fonts are also listed so you can extend the fallback chain.

Cursor and ligatures​

Appearance settings also expose terminal details such as:

  • Cursor style — Block / Underline / Bar
  • Cursor blink
  • Font ligatures

If you switch between dark and light themes often, it is worth checking the terminal theme together with keyword highlighting and action links so the overall result stays readable.

Language switching​

NyaTerm currently provides:

  • Simplified Chinese
  • English

You can switch language in either of these places:

  • Settings → General → Language
  • View → Language in the top menu

Panels and workspace appearance​

Besides colors and fonts, the workspace itself can be tuned to match your habits:

  • Left and right panel widths are resizable
  • Split ratios inside a tab are resizable
  • Left and right activity bars can be shown or hidden quickly with shortcuts

These layout states are saved with app settings, which makes it practical to keep a preferred long-term workspace arrangement.

Zoom and quick adjustments​

NyaTerm provides these common shortcuts:

  • Zoom In — Ctrl / Cmd + =
  • Zoom Out — Ctrl / Cmd + -
  • Reset Zoom — Ctrl / Cmd + 0

These are especially useful for demos, screen sharing, or high-DPI displays.
