Agree absolutely. And need better contrast options - I do not work in a cave and I do not have 30:20 vision.

Yes please! I use the comments field in the marker panel constantly to annotate my footage make selections - often with detailed descriptions. I am constantly leaning in and squinting to read my own notes.

Other Adobe apps like Photoshop and Illustrator have scaling options built into them, so hopefully this is in the works for Premiere too.

Yes! I just upgraded from 2017 and on my UHD monitor this is a big problem.

YES!!! I use a 4k monitor and I have to lean in to read it! I don't want to have to change my screen resolution; i want to make the fonts of the UI bigger or smaller in settings!

This is an issue I've seen across the board for Adobe software. On a 24" screen (1920x1080) the UI font is tiny. On apps that do have scaling options the large size is either insignificantly larger or jumps scale. A slider or number entry field would be ideal, maybe with a font size preview box below as example of how text will appear. Give users total control by having the option from default (tiny) to HUGE. I have new glasses and still struggle to see it.

Hello.

I'm on a MacOS Catalina platform (MB Pro 15" late 2016) .

The Display Resolution is 2560 x 1440 on my external Eizo CG277.

I have Adobe Premiere Pro 2020, Version 14.8.0.

The UI font size is very small.  How do I adjust it? I can't figure out how to adjust it for Premiere Pro.

Thanks for your help.

Hey Rob,

Check out the slider at the bottom of the Project panel. You can enlarge the size of your list view items and the fonts there by sliding the slider to the right. I hope that helps.

 

Thanks,
Kevin


I ordered a new High Resolution 4K monitor and I see that there is a setting in Photoshop that will allow me to increase the size of the User Interface to properly scale the Menu and fonts in Photoshop but I don't see an option like that in Adobe Premiere. Is there a way to increase the User Interface elements, menus and fonts. I am very surprised that Adobe does not have an option like this on all of this 2019 software produces.
