If you downloaded the 0.16 FreeCAD Manual in .pdf format I think you would "zoom in" instead of using changing the text size. I use the + key to zoom in, although in the Edit > Zoom pull-down menu of my document viewer it says to use the Ctrl and + keys together (I'm using Linux instead of Windows). There should also be a GUI only method in your document viewer but I don't know what that might be as I'm now not using Windows.BCBaldwin wrote: ↑Thu Aug 17, 2017 5:00 am Just downloaded the program and reading the initial documentation and going through the individual steps to learn the program and the font is really small. I have tried to make adjustments in the preferences and also on windows. It increases the sizes of everything else but the documentation.
I have a high rez monitor and the above helped me greatly.wmayer wrote: ↑Wed Feb 11, 2015 9:19 am There is no parameter in the settings where font size can be changed. But with a little Python hacking you can try this:Code: Select all
from PySide import QtGui f=QtGui.QApplication.font() f.pointSize() # returns e.g. 8 f.setPointSize(10) f=QtGui.QApplication.setFont(f)
Yes this is true, but the code snippets from @wmayer is from 2019, so I suppose it will work on 0.19 too.
