font size V3.4.0, rev. 1, 64bit (Ubuntu 14.04.1)

[simon]

not able to read text due to its small size.

tried changing OS dpi, monitor resolution and QT scaling, all no effect.

then found "guiFontSize_Linux" option and changed to 20

now readable, except for the hierarchy which remains small.

Hello,

you should obtain better results by setting value highResDisplay in file system/usrset.txt to 1.

Thanks. With changing the highResDisplay value the font changes from tiny to huge. Is there a way to set the font size in finer steps? I can read now the text very well but it consumes a lot of space on my screen now. I would like to do screen recording.
By the way, I am on Windows 4.2.0 (Rev. 5).

Hello,

are you referring to the font size of the GUI, or the font size of the code editor?
In system/usrset.txt, you have several values you can change:

• guiFontSize_Linux / guiFontSize_Win / guiFontSize_Mac
• scriptEditorFontSize
• highResDisplay (-1=none, 2=enabled, 1=special)

Cheers

Hi, i refer to the scene hierarchy. Its font size is only affected by the value of highResDisplay.

[coppelia]

Is there a difference between the 3 options for that variable, i.e. -1, 1 or 2? Does this also happen with CoppeliaSim V4.3?

Cheers

[Chris2]

Yes, with changing the values one can set a tiny or a huge font, but nothing inbetween. I can't test the new version 4.3 now, because I don't want to change a productive system with version 4.2. here. When I get access to another computer I will test it. Either way, setting the scene hierarchy font size by a distinct value is a good idea to put on the todo list imho.

Can you share a screenshot when highResDisplay is -1, and when it is 2? You can post it here, or send it to us directly too.

Cheers

[Chris2]

I just send you screenshots directly.
