Add a global font size scaling option (slider or percentage parameter)

Product Support Feature Request

Hello Dlubal team,

I would like to suggest adding a global font size scaling option to the software. This could be implemented as a slider or a percentage parameter (similar to what many programs already offer) to increase or decrease the size of ALL fonts in the program.

Ideally, there could be two separate parameters:

  1. One for the GUI interface (menus, dialogs, etc.)

  2. Another for the working window, affecting all text displayed in the model view — such as forces, internal results, and other annotations.

At the moment, changing font sizes one by one for each display type is quite complicated and not very productive. Having a global scaling option would make this process much more efficient and user-friendly, especially for those working on high-resolution screens or who simply need larger text for readability.

Thank you for considering this improvement!

Hello @mga_structurame :waving_hand:,

Thank you for your question!

You can create a template with your specific font settings and then use it across all your projects. For detailed instructions on how to do this, please refer to the following guide:
Creating a Template with Font Settings

Regarding your request for additional font customization, please note that Dlubal Software places a strong emphasis on maintaining a uniform and balanced corporate identity. As such, a feature like this is currently not planned for future releases.

I hope this clarifies things! If you have any more questions, feel free to reach out. :blush:

Best regards,
Fabian
