    Any way to Zoom the UI?

    I have poor eyesight. I abuse the zoom feature constantly Crate. However zoom does not affect any of the UI elements (omnibar, menus, etc.) This gets... irksome. Ideas on how to remedy this?

    Have you looked for a theme that may have larger versions of these? If there aren't any, perhaps requesting somebody to make one could result in something. I doubt you are the only one.

    Chances are some theme developer would be more than willing to make something, though I am not sure how to get in touch with any of them.

    From the limited poking about in theme creator you can't dictate font sizes. Only colors for things and any graphic elements behind the text.

    Apparently Google is working on it but it isn't available yet. This seems odd given the number of open source zoom options.

    Sweet. Glad to know I'm not in so small a minority that I'll get ignored.

    A temporary solution is to hold down the "ctrl" key and push the "+" key. That will increase the text size.

    *headdesk*

    Does not work on UI elements. Was the first thing I tried. Also mentioned in first post.

    No wories. Was slightly annoyed when I made the reply as I've been given that from family on all sides whenever i complain. That or observations I don't need to be on the internet *eyeroll* but that's flamebait for another day.

    I guess this will all be fixed "Enable Accessibility Features" actually does something in Chrome OS. Maybe we'll get an update before February.
