Huge unusable font size in Android Studio


As the title states, I've inadvertently set the font size to something gargantuan in Android studio and it's now totally unusable. At most I see the tops of a few letters once the program loads, so I can't even get back into the options to reduce the font size. Looking through the config files has given me no joy, so I am looking for some way of adjusting the settings from outside the program itself or deleting all user customised settings and starting again without completely deleting everything. I had tried to uninstall and reinstall, which worked for a short while then the font went back from normal to huge.

**Edit: I've managed to fix it (for now at least) by moving the .AndroidStudio1.2 file from my users folder and starting Android Studio again allowing it to reset.


Solution

  • The way to fix this is pretty easy actually.

    Navigate to C:/Users/< your account >/.AndroidStudio/config/options/

    Open ui.Inf.xml and change the FONT_SIZE property to an appropriate value (12 is default iirc)
