Enlarge UI Text size

[EJD1]

27-in. iMac. Default screen resolution.

Please enlarge the text on the desktop UI. You've allowed for a fine range of zooms for the created document, but that doesn't help when we cannot read the UI, struggle to find & make out the wording of section tabs or basically find anything from the program on the screen. If I've got to shove my face up against the screen to read the Publisher tools & toolbars, it appears not yet ready for market.

Many folks in the publishing trades have spent many years staring at screens, and ill-lit paper, with concomitant eye fatigue or damage to show for it.

I enjoy the other Affinity projects, but would rarely use this one if the screen text for the app is too small.

As it stands, I have to change my screen resolution just for Publisher. I'm willing to do that for testing, but it's not something I would pay cash money to have to endure if that is not corrected. Just saying...

Thanks!

Hi EJD1,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
I'm not sure you are aware but there's already a preference setting to enlarge the UI text. Go to Publisher Preferences, User Interface section and set the Font UI Size to Large (right below the first three sliders).

?? I couldn't find it. I may be looking in the wrong place.

This may be a setting that is only available on the Mac. Can anyone confirm? I don't see it, either. On Win10.

It's only for Mac. (Which the OP uses.)
