    This, please. I can read the register just fine but the font in the sidebar is so small I cannot read it at all. This is a particular problem for Mac users relying on external monitors.

    Windows version is the same.

    Quicken, if you read these forums, seems like this would be an easy fix as the register font can already be changed for easier viewing.

    We can adjust the size of the text in the register, but can't adjust size of the text in the sidebar. If we could do that as well, that would be great.

    I'd suggest an update to use the same font for the left panel as specified in the "Register Text and Row Settings".

    I believe the Side Bar font size is adjusted by System Settings=>Displays=>Use As setting that changes the Mac system font size, however, that also scales the whole desktop. I prefer to have a higher resolution and then adjust my app's font size up a little but I am not able to do this in the Quicken for Mac Side Bar. Please add this as a preference setting.

    Now that I'm having eye problems, I adjusted the font size in the register window, but I can't change the sidebar font size. This website has no responses regarding a way to do so. Is there no way to increase font size in the sidebar?

    For those of us with eyesight issues, it would be most helpful to be able to increase the font size in the sidebar, as well as the toolbar. I have to get right up on my screen in order to see accounts/balances.

    Yes! Increase font size in Windows, too:) Not sure I can prep my taxes without larger font:(

    Please let me know if there is a work-around or has this issue been addressed, and if fixed, where is the setting?

    @NewMac2017 This thread is a request to the developers to add new functionality, so it has not yet been addressed. The Idea has received 22 votes so far over 3 years, so it hasn't yet been officially forwarded to the developers for their consideration for implementation. (It's always possible it's on their radar independent of this Idea request.) If/when this thread reaches 30 votes, it will then be sent to the developers for assessment; if they agree it's a desirable feature, once they can find time to slot it into their development calendar, this thread would be marked as "Planned".

    @dennismd Please make sure you have added your vote in the yellow box at the top of this page; just adding a comment saying "add my vote" does not, in fact, add your vote. 😉 This topic needs a few more votes before it is forwarded to the developers for consideration.
