User interface font size is one of the most basic elements of any software and should be the highest priority.

All software companies drop features as the hardware, OS etc evolve that they no longer feel they can support dependably.   Happy to provide chapter and verse if anyone wants to hear them.  Just consider all the bugs that are reported after a new version of Premiere is released.  Adobe can't thoroughly test the program on all the possible variations of hardware, OS and other installed programs.

This needs constant repeating.   Keeping the conversation here as civil as possible is very important and often seems to fall by the wayside.   And I truly appreciate the contributions that the adobe team makes here.    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.

Neither "view" is more accurate or based in reality. Look at the incredibly massive overhaul of Premiere color management, accomplished in less than one build cycle. Along with many other changes.

 

A lot of users seem to miss one glaringly obvious concept. Like any other organization of humans, Adobe does stuff based on a priorities listing. It's how you get stuff done in groups. As someone who's had my own business for over 40 years, with at times a fair number of employees, priorities were always crucial to keeping everyone on a useful, similar path.

 

Am I frustrated by the font size thing? Font color? And also, the weird way they code use of mulitple monitors? Just their visual UI in general? Oh, heck yes. I've talked with staffers at NAB about it for a decade now.

 

So user input helps to shape that priorities list. User input is one of the data points on designating priorities. Once things get high enough on it, boom, they happen.

 

We just want this up higher ... 

Everyone's mileage always varies ...

Curious, just how many upvotes will it take for Adobe to really prioritize this? Or does your team respond better to shaming from the visually impaired community you continue to ignore? At this point the improvements should already be in the Beta, right? Can anyone using beta confirm?

There needs to be a setting to increase the UI font universally. Please implement this. I have done no evil in my life that justifies this torture of my eyes with your tiny font.

Oh, BTW, that was a feature request. My fingers got away from me!  🙂  Please make the ability to adjust ui font size and other basic visual enhancements a front end feature.

Hi Adobe team

 

Can you please let us have an update on the likley timescale for fixing the UK font size issue?  I know Adobe is a public company, bt some timescale hint would be useful.  I should say that, for now, I'm just doing more and more work in Resolve - as I can acuatallt see the UI!!  Thanks!!
