  • interface text size?

    Posted by Nicholas Toth on September 25, 2008 at 5:59 pm

    Hey everyone!

    So I’ve been getting some pretty awful migraines/fatigue from working on 30″ displays and reading text that is too small. So I’m trying to make the text bigger in most apps.

    Anyone know how to make the interface text bigger in AE?

    thanks!

    Lower the resolution of the monitor…you will lose screen real-estate, but your text will be bigger.

    most computer’s graphic cards have a nifty feature called DPI adjust. Right click desktop, display properties, settings, advanced, general, custom DPI. yummy.

    for windows
    display properties->advanced-DPI size, will change font size but leave rasters the same.

    I’m working in OSX if it matters.
