P: Modifying font and font size in the interface

The Ctrl+F12 console method only partially works as affects UI elements inconsistently because it's not an intended function.

That's not an end-user feature Flavio.

It is against the corporate guidelines and is a request from Adobe Premiere Pro engineering.

"The closest thing Premiere has is the Project panel menu > Font Size > [choose a size]"

Ooh that's good to know, thanks. The catch is it only seems to affect the project panel, nothing else.

Hi Community,

I am advocating for this feature request. I also am no spring chicken and need glasses to see the UI.

Basic option for virtually every type of software. The entire discipline of UI/UX is geared toward accomodating the software user interface to the human being, not the other way around. Not just sofware. Car seats, airline flight decks, bicycles, smartphones; spreadsheet, color correction, other companies' editing and imaging software; word processors, databases. I think a more efficient question would be: what type of software does not have an adjustable UI to suit individual users? 

Hey @Michael Grenadier . Yes, an additional monitor is a good workaround. My challenge is that my main display is a 32" cintiq. I edit with it, draw on it, and stand in front of it whenever possible. It's so big, that to add additional displays above or beside it becomes an ergonomic challenge. Like many, I would prefer a single monitor for all my needs.( @pigsalreadyfly has lots of different apps open at the same time, with premiere pro being the legibility problem). A color timer has different needs... and a different setup. (I have no need for a client monitor while I'm tweaking, for example.)

if the issue is monitoring 4K material at 4K, I think there are solutions to output 4K from within Premiere to an external 4K monitor.  Can't say I've ever done it or felt it was necessary, but Blackmagic and AJA make several solutions...    And frankly, most computer monitors do not reproduce colors with sufficient accuracy.  Of course, I may be mistaken...  I have used the blackmagic decklink ultra (I think that is the name) to output 1080 video from within premiere because Apple in all there wisdom only allowed one external monitor to be connected from the first generation M1 macbookpro with out publicizing the fact sufficiently...  Was a big surprise and luckily figured out this solution...  

And I supposed this might have been discussed previously in this thread, but it's way too many pages to sort thru.

Hallelujah! "Hi-Rez" is not an overspend and critical in a lot of workflows. Thank you for pointing this out @BGPictures in such an eloquent way.

Hey @MyerPj . Thanks for looking at the link. I put it in as a generic illustration of how a UI (and fonts) can scale without the image scaling. If something like this were implemented in PrP (and AE) the UI could enlarge with out the monitor pannels enlarging. And because this is a PrP thread, it is also about the image -- even if the OP is asking about the font size. If you aren't interested in image quality (ie, you are ok with your OS scaling your image) this isn't the thread for you. I'm not sure if there is an OS that doesn't have the ability to scale these days. So the workaround has always been to set a 4k or higher monitor to some lesser resolution. But then you can't trust what you are seeing for image-critical use. When I use the " `" key, I want to see my 4k image at 100% uncropped. When I hit the " `" again, I want the UI to return (which it does) but to have a legible UI. Back when we were lucky to get a computer to play 320x240 video, this was not an issue. Now that we are working on 4k higher projects, it is an issue -- and one that we are encouraging Adobe to engage in like other software devlopers have.
