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.

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.
For some time now, I can't change FileMerge's font. Then it suddenly started using a Helvetica-like font (sans serif, variable width) for files it doesn't recognize (like typescript source files). That could be changed temporarily to monaco by changing the font to ... Helvetica. Yes, it's very weird.
But now, it shows all text white on white, and only the changed section is visible because of the different background and I cannot change it. I've tried to locate all the pref files, and reinstalled Xcode, but the text remains white on white.
Does anyone know how to change that, or where which (pref) file to change?
It could be a write permission issue, since I'm running it from a non-admin account.
Thanks.
This feature is completely broken, so you have to edit the theme file manually. It's located here:
~/Library/Developer/FileMerge/UserData/FontAndColorThemes/Default.xccolortheme
The file itself is plaintext XML. Even though it's pretty straightforward, I recommend backing it up first.
For example, if you want to increase the font size from "11.0" to "14.0", just do a find and replace.
You might be tempted to copy in a theme from Xcode. Don't bother. The font sizes don't appear to take effect, and FileMerge expects a white background, so darker themes won't work correctly.
The other answers didn't work for me (as I didn't have any theme files), but the following did:
Open FileMerge
Go to Preferences
Click the 'Set...' button under 'Font'
Click the top of the Fonts window so that it gets focus (this is the key step - if the Fonts window doesn't get focus the changes won't stick). If the Fonts window has focus, you should see your changes reflected in the FileMerge Preferences window live as you make them.
The solution was to delete the folder ~/Library/Developer/FileMerge. It did not solve the font problem (typescript files rendered with proportional font of different size, which causes problems for long files).
For me also the font panel settings have no effect at all. Same problem in XCode "Font & Colors" preferences.
For your colors problem, I would try quitting FileMerge, archiving the preference file, and relaunching:
mv ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.FileMerge.plist ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.FileMerge.plist.backup
FileMerge has a XCFontAndColorCurrentTheme setting:
defaults read com.apple.FileMerge XCFontAndColorCurrentTheme
I've tried setting that:
defaults write com.apple.FileMerge XCFontAndColorCurrentTheme "Presentation.xccolortheme"
But I don't see a difference. So maybe Apple is in the middle of revising this feature.
In addition to the answers already given, if those do not work, check that the files you are comparing are plain text and not rich text. If they're rich text, file merge will get the font attributes from the files themselves, hence you will not be able to affect the size of the font. You could instead open the files in a text editor and either convert them to plain text, or increase the size of the font manually.
None of this helped in my case on Big Sur, but this did the job. Requires sudo throughout so be careful.
Make a copy of a theme within the xcode bundle:
sudo cp "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/DVTUserInterfaceKit.framework/Versions/A/Resources/FontAndColorThemes/Default (Light).xccolortheme" "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/DVTUserInterfaceKit.framework/Versions/A/Resources/FontAndColorThemes/fileComp.xccolortheme"
Edit (in xcode for example) ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.FileMerge.plist. Select the new theme by setting the XCFontAndColorCurrentTheme value to fileComp.xccolortheme
Edit the font values in new theme file fileComp.xccolortheme. Quit and restart FileMerge each time to apply.
I have a problem with increasing fonts in Netbeans 8.2. I tried to use screenshot form editor .but Im not able to find Fonts & Colors option in tools or menu.
I also tried to press down Alt+z and scroll up or down (mouse wheel) and also use command + but nothing happens.
With third one --fontsize (I have no idea where I should put it...). Could you help me with making fonts a bit bigger?:)
I just solved problem:) On Mac settings are in a different place:preferences in Netbeans
fonts a color changing. Netbeans
You have to go to the left up corner, near to the apple mark, there you have NetBeans preferences. After clicking on Netbeans preferences just search for 'font' and here is font size changing option.:)
edit: And if you didnt start a project, you need to create a new project on Netbeans then Fonts&Colors section will be available in options menu.
I think you are a mac user.
You need to look at this for config file location.
http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqNetbeansConf
And I also found this. Try this one too.
1.Use Command + , to open the options
2.Select Fonts & Colors tab
3.Click the button in the Font section (button is next to the Font textbox)
4.Change the Font, style and size as needed
In Mac
simply click on the netbeans (upper left corner)
then-> preferences...
a new window will be open and select the font&color Tab
then on right side there will be a font option then click on the "..." option
and then change according to your wish
What is the default font and font size in Xcode 4.5? I ask because Im trying to configure Eclipse to use the same syntax colouring and editor font as Xcode.
Edit 03.08.2013
For future reference: I used Eclipse Colour Themes to automatically set the syntax colouring properties in Eclipse, rather than manually configuring individual colours, which is a tediously annoying (if not painful) process to do within Eclipse.
Font : Menlo Regular - 11.0
syntax colouring: See image
The default one is Menlo Regular - 11.0
I just wanted to point out that the default one now in Xcode 8.2.1 is SF Mono Regular - 11.0. Maybe someone finds it helpful.
