Hi,

Can someone explain to me how to make icons bigger?

The steps I have done:
Access Edit --➤ Preferences --➤ Icon Theme --➤ Custom Icon size and shifted slider to “Huge”. The icons changed but still are not as I expected.


Regards,

Hi,

Picture 1 shows UI of my laptop screen after icon set to Huge size. It’s not big as I expected.

Picture 2 shows brush dialogue icons. too small.

I am using GIMP 2.10.30


Regards,

You will not get the Brush tool options pop-up selector any larger, AFAIK it is hard wired in the code.
If you open the brush dock (which is not the brush editor) then the preview is adjustable and choose the brush from there.

   

When it comes to 4K monitors, for a proper fix, wait for Gimp 3 to come along

Windows users can adjust the system display see:
