Hi,

In Trados 2021, is there a way to increase the font size in the projects view?

I can increase the font size in the editor, and that's fine.

But in the projects view the font is unnecessarily small and I cannot see how to make it bigger.

This may be related to the fact that I recently bought a new small (13.4") but powerful laptop which I plug into a 27" monitor.

I suspect the font size depends on what setting the Windows system is set to. I am using a 32" monitor and has the same problem, and not just in Trados Studio.

Right click on the desktop. Choose Monitor Setting (I am translating from Norwegian, so what it actually says on your screen may be a little different).
Here you choose System > monitor > Scaling
Try to set the scaling to 150%. At least that works for me. Or experiment with different values until you find the value that suits you best.
