The version of Electric in the Savannah repository now has scaling control. It works on Windows machines, but remains untested on Macs and Linux boxes.

If you download and build, you will see a new Preference in the "Display / Display Control" section called "Overall screen scale". This value defaults to 1, but can be set to any larger value (1.5 or 2.0 for example) to expand everything (text AND graphics) by that factor. Works great on 4K monitors.

If I can get some of you to help with the other operating systems, I will make a new release of Electric (a long time coming) and get this important feature out.

Thank you!

I know that Ialso can substitute other font in font.properties in my Java runtime.
I still want to control separately fonts in the trip and menus.

Currently I'm not ready to addthis functionality to Electric code myself.
I am concentrating on analog components support in MOCMOS for H8 process I'm using

And I typically do not run Electric in windows. Yet I understood your Idea - "change default desktop font in your system". My be it will be temporary workaround for my issue, yet it also affects other applications.



Thank you,

    At [1], it has: /The Electric display varies from platform to
    platform. /

    That might be an indication of the font size not being changeable
    within Electric.

    If you are using a Windows 10 platform, you might try *Scale and
    layout* to see if that would work for you as described at [2]
    (e.g., right click on the Windows button, select Settings ->
    System -> Display, and adjust the percentage in the box for the
    "Change the size of text, apps, and other items").
