Hi Community,

Thanks for your continued comments and upvotes on the topic. As @SpivR announced, there was a live stream with Francis and Kylee. A couple of you made some comments about this idea here and I really appreciated that. Francis responded to your comments in the stream. I'll link to it here. The feature is in active development, he said, however no timeline for including the feature was announced.

 

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Communicate directly with Adobe Premiere Pro  Video Product team!

 

Just saw an announcement on YouTube of an Adobe Live stream scheduled for 3/7/2025 at 9:30am PDT.

It is titled "Meet the Adobe Video Product Team, Behind the Scenes & Beyond, with Kylee Pema and Francis Crossman".

This would be a great time to hear directly from Adobe and give your direct feedback about the user interface font size problem and anything else you wish to give feedback about.

FYI - If you aren't familiar with YouTube Live Streams, they are announced in advance, but usually the recorded version is kept online afterwards for viewing if you can't attend in real time.

YouTube has a comments feature where you can post your comments and feedback.  In my experience, feedback is best given during the live stream, but you can also post comments to the recorded video if watch it later as a replay.

YMMV how the participants or host of the live stream and video process comments, but definitely worth participating if you want to elevate the frustration with Adobe Premiere Pro user interface font size problems.

Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/live/kVoCEcsS9ZI?si=0EBXCKbCZ5QCElXl

(Hopefully the mods will not delete the link, but if they do, for whatever reason, search YouTube for "Adobe Live" channel to find it.)

To only be able to increase the Project folder size and not the actual UI text of the entire program is incredibly frustrating. Please tell me there is progress on this since November?

That would be a useful answer if I already didn't have a 4K 10 Bit monitor which I bought years ago and cost a fortune.

fwiw, Adobe only offers the latest version and the one previous.  So that would be version 24.  When you do an update, you can choose NOT to delete the previous version.   You might reach out to adobe support and see if they would provide the installer from an earlier version if necessary, but it's probably unlikely.

Does anyone know what version of Premier I have to revert to so the UI font can be bigger?

I am glad to hear Adobe is working on the UI font size issue.  I didn't love the workaround, but it was much better than nothing.  I really hope you can offer a way to up the font size as soon as possible.

Not sure it's still the case, but in the days of fcp 1-7, there was NO overt participation by apple in the user forum.

 

Not on the Apple FCP forum, but on 2-pop.com, there was Ralph Fairweather, a great man who I model my Adobe support career after. Tom Wolsky was the man on the Apple forums, but he came from the community. He wrote some books on the topic. Nice guy too. I wonder how he's doing?

 

The leader of the LACPUG is stepping down in June; it's the end of an era. Ralph presented at the first meeting. I was there. It was awesome.

I have little faith that this will be addressed, but here goes.
What the hell happened to the UI size customisation?
the icons and font is so tiny especially on 4K monitors!
I just upgraded to new versiopn and this is no longer an option. Adobe support was not able to really help to make iot much bigger.
Adobe?? I need to see the UI to be able to work!

You obviously didn't search the forum before posting. There have been a ton of threads on the subject. Including some Idea posts with staffers comments added in.

 

You might want to look around a bit.

Everyone's mileage always varies ...
