Do you use a High-DPI display or something?

Heya,

Please add more context to your mails. Not just a one-liner.

Examples:
- Which Windows version
- High-DPI or not (as Sven indicated)
- Post a screenshot covering the complete KDevelop window,
not just an excerpt

Thanks,
Kevin

Windows 7
Screen resolution 1920x1080
Screen scale is 125%
Use scales in Widows XP style (unfortunately screens in Russian)
In the KDeleops' settings I set
but source tips are small in size

Heya,

the font size in the editor part is unrelated to the font size in the
tooltips. The tool tips use the default font size of the application.

In other words, this problem is unrelated to HiDPI scaling. The font in the
tool tip scales properly if you set the screen scale to 125%.

So you want to have the font size in the tool tips synced with the font size
in the editor? Not sure right now whether that's a good idea.

Also note that the code navigation tool tips are not only displayed inside the
text editor part. They'd look off if they had a different font size than the
overall application.

Regards,
Kevin

I want the possibility to adjust tooltips' font the same way as font in the Editor. And maybe have a checkbox to synchronize or not with Editors font, for convinience.

At the current time for me hard to read what's written in the tooltip: small bold font with merged symbols of words

Isn't that (at least a bit) up to the user to decide?

And FWIW, MS Windows uses a font for tooltips that is different from (at least smaller) than the standard UI font. OS X too, in fact.
