grayman 2968 Posted November 28, 2020 Report Share Posted November 28, 2020 Is there a way to make the "size" text (shows how big things are when you select them) larger? My old eyes are having a tougher time digging the size values out of all the objects drawn in the area on the orth screen. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OrbWeaver 617 Posted November 29, 2020 Report Share Posted November 29, 2020 Currently, no, it's hard-coded. And worse than hard-coded, there's actually only one size available for the whole application to draw with, so it's not even possible for different parts of the interface to use differently-sized text. I too find the text too small (and I'm only 38), and I did very slightly increase it in one of my local commits while working on renderer-related tasks, but it would be nice to fix this properly so that users could configure whatever size they found most readable. 2 Quote DarkRadiant homepage ⋄ DarkRadiant user guide ⋄ OrbWeaver's Dark Ambients ⋄ Blender export scripts Link to post Share on other sites
grayman 2968 Posted November 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2020 I’ll be needing a magnifying glass. I’ll file an enhancement request. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
peter_spy 1529 Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) The text is indeed small at 1440p. It must be a nightmare on 4k screen. Does it scale with windows font scaling? I do have it set to 125%, but I don't remember how it looked at 100%. Edited November 30, 2020 by peter_spy Quote Misc. assets for TDM Link to post Share on other sites

As far as I know it's just a fixed pixel size (not a point size) so I doubt it will scale with Windows font scaling, although it might scale if there is a global DPI scale which also affects the wxGLCanvas widget.

peter_spy 1529 Posted November 30, 2020 Report Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) I can confirm that it scales with Windows font scaling. 100% on the left, 125% on the right. Edited November 30, 2020 by peter_spy 1 Quote Misc. assets for TDM Link to post Share on other sites

I think you're looking at the text in menus and the console window, which should indeed scale. Grayman is talking about the text on OpenGL windows, e.g. for the grid coordinates and the size of selected objects. In your screenshot this text can be seen at the bottom of the 3D view showing render statistics, and this does appear to be the same size in both images.

peter_spy 1529 Posted December 1, 2020 Report Share Posted December 1, 2020 That's true, unfortunately. Just checked the measurement tool look, and the numbers don't scale up with Windows font scale. Quote Misc. assets for TDM Link to post Share on other sites
