How to change the font size for the whole IDE? Not only to the Editor.

Hi @mohdrais! This is an automated response.
If you don’t find the answer helpful, please check the ESP32 IDE forum (https://www.esp32.com/viewforum.php?f=40) or GitHub issues (https://github.com/espressif/idf-eclipse-plugin/issues) to see if the issue has already been discussed.

I'm sorry, but the knowledge sources do not contain enough information to answer this specific question. Changing the overall font size in Espressif-IDE (beyond just the editor) is an Eclipse platform-level setting, not something covered in the Espressif-IDE documentation available to me.

However, since Espressif-IDE is built on Eclipse CDT, here are some general Eclipse approaches you can try:

• Window > Preferences > General > Appearance > Colors and Fonts — allows changing fonts for various UI elements (views, dialogs, etc.).
• On some platforms, you can also adjust the system/OS font scaling, which Eclipse will respect.

For more targeted help, I'd recommend:

1. Checking the Espressif-IDE documentation [Espressif-IDE docs] directly.
2. Posting or following up on the idf-eclipse-plugin GitHub repository, where the maintainers can provide a definitive answer for IDE-wide font size changes.
