Unity Editor Font Size Changer -- EditorStyles

README.md

Unity Editor font size editor for the editor styles and skins

Change the variable RESIZE_ON_LAUNCH to true or false. Enable resize on launch to set a default font size , using this option will disable the ability to have the window accessible from the context menu ( Window > Editor Font Size ) - because this is a hacky way to enforce default global font size on application launch ( on script assembly reload and on application enter / exit play mode )

Preview	Added custom styles ( 600+ )	Added Global Zoom ( increment all styles in the same time )

they been slowly replacing it with the new system , now unity 6 is mostly using UIToolkit instead of IMGUI for all its editor panels , where its using uss files ( unity variant of CSS )

Its possible to change font size through in Window > UI Toolkit > Debugger . a somehow similar to firefox / chrome dev tools.

The style files themselves are being loaded in runtime which looks something like this :

internal class PanelSettingsInspector : Editor
        const string k_DefaultStyleSheetPath = "UIPackageResources/StyleSheets/Inspector/PanelSettingsInspector.uss";
        const string k_InspectorVisualTreeAssetPath = "UIPackageResources/UXML/Inspector/PanelSettingsInspector.uxml";

however i didn't find any of these files in the editor installation folder , its probably being uncompressed on application start and stored in RAM. it should be possible to swap the style files manually but then you would need to edit thousands of lines manually.

Alternatively should be possible to scale all of the root panel elements to something like 150% but it would not respect boundaries at all

Otherwise should be possible to extend the script i wrote and just scan for all possible TextElement's and increase the font to your desired % ( eg font size 12px , so u would want to x 1.5 which will give u 18px ) - however this cannot grantee that the style would be persistent unless the script will continuously run , scan and update the values on the fly which would be extremely slow and would just make using the application ab absolute nightmare. By persistent i mean that when you selecting other game objects , the inspector would have to destroy the old components and create new once which will use the default non overridden elements.

I would just recommend just lowering your screen resolution at this point. so instead of using it on a 4k screen , drop it to 1080p , or even 720 as long as you get your desired PPI - sadly not enough people are using your exact operating system and i doubt they will fix that anytime soon. If Linux is instrumental to your needs try a different distro , some folks above have got it working on theirs. Or get a specialized machine just for unity if u can afford it.

I will also try a few hacks when i have some spare time , maybe its doable without flooring the performance

Thanks for looking into this! I cant really switch to anything so I guess Ill just have to strain my eyes until GNOME starts supporting fractional scaling better and just scale my whole screen when using Unity... or until Unity adds UI scaling to linux.

I'm unable to get this to work on Linux with the below version. Nothing happens when choosing Window | Editor Font Size. Editing the default size doesn't change the size on startup.

2022.2.1f1.112.6257 Revision: 2022.2/release 4fead5835099 Built: Thu, 08 Dec 2022 14:15:26 GMT

The same issue here. Arch Linux. I can't even open it. It does nothing when I try to open it.
Unity6.

Working M1 Unity 6000.0.28f1 tyvm!

Edit: While it is technically "working" it's buggy in some areas being way too scaled and others ignored - but still it's better than nothing.

Any update to this?
Unity 6 not working at all for me

Thank you so much!!!! You save my eyesight!
