Hi @NOW06, Go to your Preferences and go to the Interface tab. Then slide the bottom slider to the right for bigger, and left for smaller. Unfortunately,  you have to quit and restart to see what you get.

There is no such 'Scaling Slider' in my version (most current version 2023-06-15).

Was it 'rationalized away' by Adobe? 😞

Hi @Fabiantech it SHOULD be there. If it isn't, you have either a bad instillation or you need to reset your preferences. 

 

Alternatively, are you using a "frankin-computer? Did you build your computer yourself? I am guessing here only because 30+ years ago, I had a frankin-mac that occasionally would work really strangely on some operations. 

 

Rebuilding Bridge's prefs:

Quit Bridge (if running). Just before clicking on Bridge in the Dock or double-clicking the application for the Mac, press Command-Option-Shift. For PCs, press Control-Alt-Shift. Then open Bridge BUT KEEP your fingers on those keys until you see a window pop up. From the window, choose “Reset Preferences," "Entire Thumbnail Cache,” and/or "Reset Standard Workspaces.” In your case, choose "Reset Preferences."

 

If you choose to reinstall, do this AFTER you've tried the rebuilding option (if it works, there is no need to do this also). After uninstalling, restart the computer and then reinstall.
