Increaseing font size of file tabs cuts off the font

#1

When I try to increase the font size of the filename in the file tab, the font gets bigger, but
the lower half of the filename also becomes progressively cutoff. This results in half of a big font
displayed in the file tab.

/** Tab Labels **/
{
    "class": "tab_label",
    "fg": [0, 0, 0, 255],
    "font.size" : 18,
    "shadow_color": [255, 255, 255, 80],
    "shadow_offset": [0, 1]
},

Font sizes of status bar, side bar and tabs configurable in ST3?

Have you tried increasing tab height?

Yes, I have tried changing tab height, but it doesn’t help to reveal more of the font.
In fact, I’ve also tried shifting the font position up, using “content_margin” but that doesn’t help
either. The lower half of the filename remains obliterated for fonts > ~13ish.

I’d like to add my request for a fix for this issue. I already run Windows 7 in High DPI mode (125%), and font size 12 for the tab labels is the largest I can go without having them cut off. It’s really straining my vision :frowning:

I’d really like to be able to do this too. I have some visual issues and I’d like to be able to make the tab fonts just a bit bigger, but everything I’ve tried has resulted in the same issue.

Also an issue here…
I’ve tried everything I can think of within tab_control, tab_label, etc… to no avail.
Am running at 108 DPI and would like to go beyond font.size 11 without the cut-off…

I’ve found a ticket on UserEcho to scale the entire UI from one setting:

sublimetext.userecho.com/topic/1 … -displays/

I’ve also put together a theme that scales everything I can find, but I haven’t yet found a way to scale the tabs or the command palette. Here’s my work so far:

It’s been a few years, and I’d really like to have readably sized tab labels.

Has anyone found any solution to this yet?

The issue is filed here:

The frustrating thing is that there are loads of trivial to fix bugs that are ignored for years. I don’t expect this to change.
