I was told it would be possible to change the font size used to display the shapesheet window via a registry key after telling Visio to store all settings in the registry. I can't find a key that does this. Is it possible at all?

Is there a way to change the size of the text used in the ShapeSheet window? I can resize actual windows if I need to read small text, but the ShapeSheet window text doesn't resize when the ShapeSheet window is resized.

I saw that this question was asked 5 years ago, with no answers.

probably have to play with windows display settings (which counters crisp drawings).

So for I can't find the setting. There used to be something in the registry (I swear!), but it may have been removed. Perhaps due to Windows scaling?

There is, however, one trick:

if you use the Edit Formula pop-up (ShapeSheet > Design > Editing > Edit Formula)--it's the big fx button, you can increase the font size in that dialog by holding the Ctrl key down while rolling the mouse wheel.

It doesn't seem to remember the setting, but it is something you can do quite quickly so that you can more easily read what you are working on at the moment.

Hi Guys,

I've merged this topic with another thread that was essentially the same.
