Change size of or snap to point indicator?

[mlewus]

I am new to FreeCAD. I have less than stellar vision and a 15" laptop screen. It is difficult for me to select points, for instance to add a constraint in sketcher, without zooming way in. It would be helpful if the size of the point indicator was configurable in settings. Is there any means to do this is prefs? Or is there a way to snap to a point (line end) rather than to its associated line for selection?

I searched for this in prefs and also the forums but if it has been raised before, I apologize.

Thanks

You should increase the pick radius as well.

@mendy @chrisb, thanks to both of you. This helped tremendously.
