LINQPad Feature Suggestions

(thinking…)

I need larger fonts everywhere. I do not believe that LinqPad conforms to the usability requirements of ISO 9241 for ergonomic requirements.

The editor font can be changed, but that is not good enough. Not everybody needs larger fonts but everybody will need them eventually. I have a forty dollar editor that lets me change the font everywhere, including the tree controls and menus (which is why I use it). Surely you have the chops to match a text editor. I just cannot keep this upgrade unless I can read the screen without a headache.

    @Joe

    I have been a Premium User for LinqPad for a long time.
    I'm on windows 11 and I changed the display settings > scaling to 150%.
    LinqPad didn't respond to my changes even after restarting the application.

    Today, coz of age or eye sight, I wanted to increase the font-size and there is none except for editor zooming through CTRL+Mouse-Wheel.

    And I don't want everything else to be zoomed as my focus is working with LinqPad.

    It would benefit the LinqPad community to have this feature within LinqPad - to zoom the whole window including fonts or changing font-size altogether. Please consider the request.

    LINQPad honors the global Windows DPI setting. If general readability is an issue, go to the display properties, and choose display scaling > 100%.

    If this does not meet requirements, what is the rationale for wanting LINQPad to use a font for its dialogs, menus, etc., that is larger the font used by all other Windows applications?
