Interface Font Size in 4.7

Just upgraded to 4.7 and suddenly the fonts on the interface are too small to read. I am beating myself up trying to find how to change the font size.

Any advice?

    Changing the style in the main menu... Window/Style/Select Style was the only way I've found to do that.

    Thanks, changing styles did help a bit!
    It would be nice to have a font size control though.

    Now I'm glad I didn't upgrade to 4.7, as that's the main complaint I've had with the Carrara UI. The font in the menus is too small, and too crowded, to make it comfortable to use.

    Font control PLEASE! My old eyes can't read the menus anymore.

    The style options are the same in 4.7 as in 4.6, except that Darkside is the default in 4.7, and it has smaller fonts.

    I would hope that future updates allow font size control for the UI.

    Hello,

    I´ve got the same problem today. I bought a new computer with Win8.1.
    There is a feature to prevent that large-scale font used in old softwares become distorted when used with Windows 8.1 (High DPI settings).

    You can disable this feature for Daz3D, if you follow these steps.
    Right-click on the program's icon > properties.
    Go to the Compatibility tab.
    Check "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" and click on Apply.

    Best regards

    I failed to continue watching this thread, thank you sooo much! I was still having the same problem with 4.8, having to put on my readers, it is the only program that I need to do that with.

    Thanks again for the fix!

    edit: Ooops, after getting excited that a fix had been found, I have discovered that improvement was marginal if any at all. We really need font size scaling in the interface, please!
