Dear Unity Devs
About 3 months ago I developed poor eyesight due to ischemic stroke, and it is a real struggle dealing with Unity’s Editor because of the small font and no ability to change the font. All the letters just blur together, almost like I’m dyslexic. I have very little issue reading code in an IDE (blurry but readable).
What’s just as important as the size is the ability to change the font so that we can use monospaced programmer fonts that work much better small like Monaco, Roboto Mono or Dejavu Sans Mono. Arial is still hard to read unless it is really big.
This is the highest voted feature under review and has been requested for 7 years!!!

We really really need this, 12pt arial (it looks even smaller than that) is almost impossible read all the letters just blur together, we need the ability to use programmer fonts like monaco as well.
I may have to pull all my assets off unity simply because I am going to struggle to support it when I can barely read anything.
Please, I am begging you, I love everything about this engine, just please can you just fix this one issue!
If you are adding this feature, adjusting kerning really helps too, but I’m not going to complain if its not there, just seems trivial if you’re adding the other stuff.
Unity 5 or LTS as well if possible, 5 is the most stable and is preferred for production, but I’ll be ok with using LTS if things improve, but any other versions are far too unstable for production. But hey, beggars can’t be choosers either, so ill take what I can get.
Thank you devs!!!
