Font/Menus/Toolbars too small within Sierra Chart

I just installed SC on a laptop with 3200x1800 resolution with an external monitor with 1920x1080 resolution. Fonts/menus/toolbars below the top menu are disproportionately small, making it impossible to read prices on the Y axis. This happens on the 1920x1080 monitor as well. Please note this only happens within SC; other programs do not suffer from this small fonts/menus issue. I have attached a snapshot to illustrate the issue. Thoughts on how to fix this?

OK just had to change the settings within Global Settings > Graphic Settings. For some odd reason everything was set at size 4. Even though I simply copied the SC folder from another computer where text is not at 4.

I have installed bootcamp and Windows 10 on my Macbook Pro and I'm having the same problem with the price. I have changed every font to a bigger size, but it doesn't affect the price on the right side of the chart. See attachment. The attachment is much bigger than what it looks like on my screen. The price isn't readable at all. And the 'show order fills' are still tiny too. Again, I have enlarged every font under 'fonts'.

You need to change the Chart Text font, which is on the Fonts tab under the Graphics Settings. Refer to the information here: Graphics Settings: Chart Text - (current font name) Also note that if you are changing this and it is not affecting your chart, then you have selected the wrong Graphics Settings. There are Global Settings and Chart Specific Settings (if set to use them).

BINGO! I wasn't doing the 'Chart/Graphic Settings-Chart' one. But the 'Global Settings/Graphic Settings-Global' shouldn't have had an effect on that? Thanks! Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-09-07 21:09:18

If the option for Use Global Graphics Settings Instead of These Settings is unchecked, then only the Chart >> Graphics Settings - Chart will affect the chart's graphics settings. If the option is enabled, then only the Global Settings will apply.
