Change Font Size?

[VicJones]

Hey does anyone know how to change the font or increase the font size in Ableton? I'm aware of the zoom feature but it seems to make everything kinda blurry. I love the DAW but it's really hard to read things with such a small font.

Never heard of anyone suffering this problem. Check your computer resolution? Maybe its just not agreeing with the program, or zooming in the program?

Hey thanks for your reply, I'll double check my settings again.

I have the same issue. I'm running Win10 with 2 x 4K monitors. Windows font settings are set to 150%. Everything looks perfect but LIVE fonts are terrible. They are blurry and hard to read. I have had this problem from LIVE6. Only the fonts that are on the top menu (which are standard Windows fonts) are OK. I do not understand why Ableton uses such crappy fonts. Please od not advise me to change screen resolution or change Windows settings. It messes up the entire system and then my other fonts are to big. I need particulary change fonts only in LIVE
I just made an upgrade from Live7 TO 9.6 and I'm very disapointed.

There was a post a few months back about this same topic, try running Ableton in compatibility mode.

[NoSonic822]

right click on the ableton icon inwindows, go to compatibility, and click the "disable display scaling" or if thats clicked, unclick it .

When I disable scaling the screen fonts became so small that I cannot even read the menu,...nothing. In the curent mode I can read Windows fonts in the top menu but whatever fonts are generated by LIVe are for the most pasrt unreadable. First of all they are to fat and low res.
The bottom lines is that if one uses 4K monitor in 4K res it is very bery hard to use LIVE. For me it is like sitting with my face about 1ft away from the screen.

THIS REALLY HAS TO BE ADDRESSED !
