absolutely need to change the UI font size !

Altair Forum User

Hi everyone,

I'm a newcomer in this forum and I'm playing with the trial version of Evolve 2016,
in order to test some new workflows.
I currently use this pipeline : Rhino V5 + Moi3D + NVIL (Poly/SDS modeler) + 3DCoat (Sculpting/Retopo/UVing/3d Painting/Texturing) + Thea Render

Well...I'm having many problems with the micro-sized UI font!!!

I checked the preferences but I didn't find the way to change the font size.

How can I change this setting ?
(I hope that the reply isn't 'You can't')

I'm running Evolve 2016 in a Windows 8.1 pro 64 bit environment, on a full HD 17'' laptop.

Here's my Evolve screenshot

Have a nice day.

Is this forum alive ??

Hi Marco,

Sorry for the late reply.  Unfortunately the answer to your question is the one you didn't want to hear.  Currently it is not possible to adjust the font size in Evolve.  We are working on it and it will be adjustable in the future.

Hi Darren Chilton and thanks for your reply.

I understand that for software like Evolve the most important thing it's to be focused as much as possible on the strength of its modelling tools,

but...nowadays we are accustomed to using fine tunable UI as well as full HD / 4k monitor.

Having a good and comfortable UI would give a better and streamlined workflow, and I think this can often make a difference.

Best,

We have added the option to adjust the font size in version 2017.1, which is available now.  Access can be found in the User Interface tab in the Preferences panel.

Cheers,

Any update on this . I have heard that in future we can change the font UI. How close are we actually ?

The font size can be adjusted by using the Help-Preferences menu on PC.

Under User Interface tab, you will find the font size option. Please see screenshot below.

Font size does not apply to some pop up tool windows like Curve plot, surface curvature, view detail and so on.
