FF22 Settings Adjusted To Resize Large Icons - But The UI Text - (bookmarks, etc) - Is Too Small To Read... How Do I Enlarge The UI Text Only?

I adjusted FF22 settings to resize the large icons - but the UI text - (bookmarks, history, etc) - is too small to read... How do I enlarge the UI text without enlarging webpage text - or re-enlarging the FF22 icons again?

You can set the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref on the about:config page to 1.0 (current default value is -1.0) to restore the behavior of previous Firefox versions.

You can make further adjustments and start with a value of 1.0 and adjust this value with 0.1 steps or 0.05 for finer adjustments to make icons on the toolbars look right.

  • Use values between 1.0 and about 0.5 to reduce elements in size (do NOT go all the way to 0.05!)
  • Use values greater than 1.0 to magnify and make elements larger (percentage divided by DPI, % / DPI).

Use this extension to adjust the font size for the user interface:

You can look at the Default FullZoom Level or NoScript extension if web pages need to be adjusted after changing the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref.

Already tried changing the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref. Currently set at 1.25.

It did not change the drop down context menu text size - the address bar text size - or the search bar text size. These are the three that are too small to read - unless you are close to the monitor.

The text below the address bar - and webpage text - is a readable size.

Thank you for your help... The "Theme Font Size Changer" add-on fixed the problem.
