You cannot within the program interface. You can change fonts for completed views using custom themes. You can also change screen resolution.

You can enlarge what’s on the screen by using CTRL and scroll the mouse wheel.

That is not a program feature, but may be a feature of your operating system.

Actually, that does not work within the Manager window.

As noted this cannot be done in the desktop window.

I have diabetes related blindness and NEED a font size closer to 18 point.

Please ???

Hello @Tigadad,

You can simply zoom in using Ctrl/Cmd + + and this should work just fine since Manager’s layout is responsive.

Sorry to say that it does not work on Macos . My Mac version is 10.15.8 so I can’t use the latest version but I can’t find the version of mine to tell you.

So you must be using Desktop edition.

Also …

I wouldn’t worry about that since Manager is now using `Electron` platform which is completely OS agnostic.

Let’s try another method then. From the top menu, click on `View` \> `Zoom In`

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/manager1/original/3X/c/2/c2b5deb07c5c14468f5e66f229c83d1570ec3ff4.png)

This also shows the keyboard shortcut for zooming, in my case on Windows it is Ctrl+=, which makes my previous advise obsolete and I’m sorry for that.

I don’t know what you mean by this but this begs a more pressing question: **What is the version number of Manager are you using?**

That’s very old.

Why not try out the latest version on another machine and see if you like the latest version.

The latest version has a much bigger font size by default already.

The version I listed is the version on my Nac.

I spun up a new Lubuntu 20.04 image as a virtual machine and downloaded the latest Ubuntu Appimage. Unfortunately it does not work. it throws the error “[Archive type not supported](https://forum.manager.io/t/archive-type-not-supported-error-opening-latest-ubuntu-appimage/67212/4)”.
