[FIXED] Change Project Explorer tree view font size in Eclipse Oxygen

Issue

I am using Eclipse Version: Oxygen.1a Release (4.7.1a) and I want to enlarge the Project Explorer tree view font size because I have some sight issues and thus I searched many places to enlarge the project tree view font size.

rel="noreferrer">

I only founded the font change in project explorer tree view for older eclipse versions releases which are older or equal to eclipse luna version.

for the information I would like to say that this Oxygen version release is latest in Eclipse IDE, please somebody help me.

Solution

I assume that it is important for others also, so I am posting this, for below requireds in eclipse ide,

Increase java editor font size

Window Menu -> Preferences -> General > Appearance > Color and Fonts > Java > Java Editor Text Font > Edit & Apply

Increase console output font size

Window Menu -> Preferences -> General > Appearance > Color and Fonts > Debug > Console font > Edit & Apply

Increase xml bean file font size

Window Menu -> Preferences -> General > Appearance > Color and Fonts > Basic > Text Font > Edit & Apply

Increase dialog view font size

Increase project explorer tree view font size

If using Windows 7 or higher architecture, then reach to the eclipse home directory, go inside of eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.ui.themes_X.X.X.vXXXXXXXX-XXXX\css directory, find two css files which are "e4_default_gtk.css" and "e4_default_win.css", open and add below said css script part in tail of above two files, save those and close accordingly,

.MPart Tree {
    font-family: Consolas;
    font-size: 14;
}

if eclipse is opened, restart, it all worked for me on eclipse oxygen.1a release version,

and hope on other OS type, you have to edit the same e4_default_gtk.css and other e4_default_os-type.css, thanks.
