Recently in my installation of VS2022 the tooltip message font size went microscopic as shown in the clip below.
I've gone thru the font size options in the menus but haven't been able to find anything that will change the size.
Any ideas how to get that back to a readable size?
Go to Tools → Options → Environment → Fonts and Colors and change the drop down to "Editor Tooltip" and then change the "Size" drop down value (the default is 9, yours appears to be set to something like 6):
The cause was an extension that extended the intellisense functionality. The resolution was to remove the suspect extension, restart VS2022, then reinstall the extension.
The errant extension was either CodeRush or CodeMaid.
(I'm using a MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019) Monterey v12.5)
I was trying to test different font settings and I came up messing my "Fixed-width font".
The default is "Custom" and once I changed it to other fonts it just disappears in the drop-down list.
I figured out "Custom" font should be Courier New with bold font weight.
I have been googling to see if there is any way to restore it to the default but not quite getting the answer.
Reinstalling Chrome might be one of the methods but it takes me long time to restore other settings. I would like to know if there is other way before trying reinstall.
default fixed-width font
I just found the way to solve my own problem.
What I've done is:
"Inspect" the drop-down list option
Change the element DOM "Courier New" -> "Courier"
Select any other font once and change back to Courier (that has been just changed from "Courier")
The original font should come back.
Hope this help someone who has the same problem as mine.
Recently, I changed the appearance of my R studio to Xcode. I liked its text color on the scripts part but didn't like the color on the console. It doesn't have a different color option for error and warning messages. So, I want to go back to the default one, whatever the R Studio comes with. How can I do it?
The default RStudio theme is 'Modern' the default editor theme is TextMate.
To change the Editor theme to default you must go to Tools -> Global Options -> Appearance. Then, in the Editor theme section you have to select TextMate(defauilt) which is the default editor theme you have when you install RStudio.
If you are trying to change the appearance you can do this by going to Tools -> Global Options -> Appearance. There are several options for the Rstudio theme and the editor.
The RStudio Support describes this in greater depth.
It is very common knowing changing font/text in xcode. I found it difficult for me to do that in version 6.3. Any help please?
If you trying to say about Xcode Editor then here it is .
As mention by drdiv in this post How to Increase Font Size in the xcode editor?
Easisest solution:
Close any open projects.
Xcode > Preferences > Font & Colors
Make sure to press CMD+A to select all possible text types. Then change the font size from the picker.
Note:- Of if you want to change the fornt and size of any other like
UICONTROL or etc then please explain your question in detail.
I watch a lot of tutorials on the web, expesially ASP.NET tutorials - And constantly notice that everyone seems to have VS set with a black background and yellow/white text?
Why is this? and how can I set up my version to look like it?
Thanks
It is Rob Conery's TextMate theme that you want.
After Download in Studio ... Tools > Import & export settings and follow the wizard.
Share and enjoy!

For VS2012 :
if you want to simply change the default black and white background then ;
Go to Tools ->Options -> Environment -> General.
Right side pan, you you will see Color theme drop down;select Dark or light in order to get basic black and white background.
if you want to change default color,Font or Font size then you select ;
Tools ->Options -> Environment -> Fonts and Colors
Now, Visual Studio 2012 supports black theme.
To change to black theme :
Tools -> Options -> Visual Experience -> Color theme
Check out shanselmans blog article about this, he lists quite a few of them, so pick one you like. Personally, I've got the Monaco font installed, and I love it!
In Visual Studio 2017 you can do the following:
Tools -> Options.. -> Environment -> General -> Color theme -> Dark -> OK
you can do this by taking visual studio tools - > options - > font and colors and set what ever you want in font and text.
If you want some background image means : try this tool
I personally find it easier to read, and the colors can have more subtle hues and convey more meaning for me.
I used this scheme to start with: https://web.archive.org/web/20080116232122/http://www.agileprogrammer.com/dotnetguy/archive/2006/09/07/19030.aspx
Go to VS -> Tools -> Options.
It has list of settings you can change.
For changing color; look left side pane and select Fonts and color.
You also can change default Item foreground and item background color as your wish from right side pane.
In VS 2015, go to tools>>options>>environment>>general>>dark
That's the theme I see most people use, and it feels much better on the eyes.
Select : Tools > Options > General > Color Theme > Dark
You can also change the font by selecting :
Select : Tools > Options > General > Fonts and Colors > ...
For me:
Tools > Options > Environment > Color theme(from dropdown select): > Blue
