How to change environment's font size?

Question

Is there a way to change the environment font size in Visual Studio Code? Stuff like IntelliSense box, debug panel, file names, etc.

I know how to change the editor\

Answer 1

As of now (March 2018) & version 1.21.0, you can go to Settings, search for 'zoom' and change "editor.mouseWheelZoom": false which is false by default to true. This will allow to zoom in/out on VS Code using control button and mouse - ctrl + scrollUp/scrollDown. For changing the fontSize of the overall working space/screen of VS Code, refer to Alegozalves's answer above.

Answer 2

Press Ctrl and use the mouse wheel to zoom In or Out.

Answer 3

1. Open VS Code
2. Type command CTRL + SHFT + P
3. Type Settings
4. Settings file will open.
5. Now under User > Text Editor > Font, find Font Size
6. Enter your desired font size

That's it.

Answer 4

Took me ages to work out what I'd accidentally done when my code window went huge:

Zoom out = Ctrl + Shift + , (comma)

Zoom in = Ctrl + Shift + . (full stop/period)

Not actually an answer to the posted question at all but I think someone like me will end up here because of the symptoms!

Answer 5

After Pressing Control+Shift+P as suggested by @Edwin:

1. Look for Workspace Settings:

2. Then "Place your settings in the file to the right to overwrite...default and user settings," or click the UserSettings tab to adjust the window.zoomLevel if that is the desired action.

Answer 6

A Simple approach to change the Font Size in Visual Studio Work Environment :

Go To : File -> Preferences -> Settings OR Press CTRL+, i.e. CTRL + COMMA.

This will open settings.json.

You can see 3 tabs there :

1. User Settings
2. Workspace Settings
3. Folder Settings

Go to User Settings and Add this :

{
"editor.fontSize": 16
}

Now just save and close the file.

In above code, 16 represents the font size. Increase of Decrease as per your wish.
