changing the ImageJ/Fiji appearance

[Boris Epstein-2]

Hello all,

I have a Fiji/ImageJ instance running on Linux (Ubuntu 16/64 bit). The
version of the ImageJ appears to be 4.0.5, JRE 1.6.0_24 64 bit. I can dig
up other data if necessary.

The main graphical pane shows somewhat small on the screen; I have tried
playing with the system fonts as well as other fonts in the Ubuntu settings
and this seems to have had no effect at all. So I would think the settings
for the fonts/symbol size in the toolbar, etc. are controlled within the
Fiji/ImageJ somewhere. So my first question is, is this guess of mine
correct? And if it is, then how do I control font size and other graphical
parameters in Fiji/ImageJ?

Thanks.

Cheers,

Boris.

Hi Boris,

I guess you are using a HiDPI display?

Have you tried with Java 9, currently in prerelease?

It can't be 4.0.5. IJ is 1.51 at most.

Check this:
Edit>Options>Fonts

Thanks. I read this from the debug output. Is there a summary manifest of
some kind detailing what version ImageJ itself and all of the
plugins/components are?

Thanks.

Did you try Edit>Options>Appearance to change the menu size?
