MATLAB editor configuration text extremely small

11 views (last 30 days)
The font size of my editor is extremely small so I increased it to 48, but then the find bar remains at 13,
I have also tried to keep the font size at its regular 13 and scroll to zoom in, but since the right-hand limit is half the page, every time I use the find bar the page jumps to the extreme right where there is no text.
This is 2023 b. I have used MATLAB for more than ten years and this has never happened before.

Fixed it through MATLAB support:
s = settings;s.matlab.desktop.DisplayScaleFactor
s.matlab.desktop.DisplayScaleFactor.PersonalValue = 1.5 % feel free to try other values

HI
The quickest way to change the editor's font is by :
  1. clicking somewhere on the code region
  2. Holding doen the Ctrl key and rolling the "middle roller" in your muouse (if you have such a roller)
This enlarges/decreases your font size
I also use Matlab v 2023b
I did not underand what you wrote "since the right-hand limit is half the page". Try a clearer explanation

In my screenshot, if you look closely to the top right coner of the editor, just under "plotting_profiles_master_function.m," there is a miniature bar saying "Find." This is the problem. I use the find bar frequently, but now the find bar and the code do not appear in the same "field of view" without scrolling out until the text in either is too small to be seen. It couldn't be helped by changing the font.

What is the "find bar"?
Some of the fonts might still be controlled by the operating system so if you can't change a font size with the MATLAB preferences, see what you can do by changing some of the font sizes in your operating system.
What OS are you using?
