If I click "..." on the font box of Visual Studio 2005 to set the font of a Label and set the font size to Arial 8 point font, Visual Studio sets the size to 8.25pt. 14 gets set to 14.25. 22 gets set to 21.75. Apparently, the values in this dialog box do not perfectly map to the size value Visual studio is using.
Why does this happen?

I installed Visual Studio 2022 and the purple line at the top is damaging my eyes
I know that I have to change it in font and color setting but there is more option, which one will change this color
Perhaps you want to try Visual Studio Color Theme Designer 2022
Or install VS2019 dark theme
And additionally report it to http://developercommunity.visualstudio.com as a problem, to make the default theme good.
I have loaded the extension Color Theme Editor for Visual Studio 2017 and want to change the color of the blinking text caret. Where can I find this setting or what is this called in the color theme editor?
Is there an option to have different font color based on a prefix (e.g. if I write something beginning with log_ then that line should be red) in Visual Studio (2010 or 2015) or a plugin to do that?
Does anyone know how to change the diff lines colors on the left of the text editor?
In Visual Studio 2013 they used to be like this for the Dark theme:
But they changed the color in Visual Studio 2015 to a more khaki tone, and I don't like it:
I can't find them in the Visual Studio 2015 Color Theme Editor.
I don't know about the VS 2015 Color Theme Editor. In a standard VS 2015 installation the colors are as shown in your first picture. If you want to change the colors, open the Options dialog with Tools + Options. In the Options window navigate to Environment, Fonts and Colors. In "Show settings for" select "Text Editor". In "Diplay items" look for "Track Changes after saved" and "Track Changes before saved".
Normally the Tabs in Visual Studio contains only text.
But if there is not enough space there are icons instead of the text.
Is it possible to always show these icons additionally to the text? Because I assume that this would really improve the readability.
It seems like there is NOT a way to show both the text AND icons, its either the text or the icon (when resizing the window). This is true for both Visual Studio 2012 and 2013.
