Toolbar icon size

Post by le_magn »

Hi everyone, I wanted to know if there is a way to increase the size of the icons on the PureBasic editor toolbar and also the size of the TAB labels (I have already increased the dpi in Windows but the PB elements are still too small). I'm getting older and between the problem of the light-colored interface elements (which remain light even when I set a dark theme, see debugger windows) that blind my eyes and the elements that are too small, it's becoming a struggle for me.

Hello,

IDK if it would work but I looked into the SilkTheme.zip. The icon files are all in PNG format and they are all 16x16 big.

My guess is that perhaps you could batch render them into a higher resolution with GIMP or XYZ, store them in an other zip and then swap the zips - but the icons would then probably look blurry. The source website for the silk theme famfamfam dot com doesn't seem to work.

To change it from inside the IDE this is something where the IDE would have to be adapted, and the theme zips would have contain multiple icon resolutions (16x,32x,48x,64x ...) or have a zip per resolution.

Good point. I have a 34" screen and use PureBasic on 50% of the screen.
Then the icons are indeed a bit small.
