    This is how my UI looks like at 130% zoom

    And this is the original 100% zoom

    Now, after zooming, the sidebar still looks so small and i have no way of zooming the rest of the UI outside the editor, such as these parts:

    Please add a way to increase the UI scale or font size. I tried the "DPI rounding policy" is settings but it did nothing.

      This is user forum, so not the right place for change requests. You should file change requests here: https://bugreports.qt.io/secure/Dashboard.jspa

        @jsulm

        My bad, I also posted this so if someone has a workaround, they can share it.

        Will post a bug report.

        Thanks.

          You can do it by using a style sheet, see https://forum.qt.io/topic/153476/how-to-increase-qt-creator-font/3?_=1718895812565

          For exmple my fonts.css looks like this:

          QWidget
          {
            font: 11pt;
          }
          

          You only need to pass this to Qt Creator via command line like:

          $ ./qtcreator -stylesheet fonts.css
