Please, oh please, someone tell me how to change the fonts in gnome 3 now. My old eyes, even with glasses and a magnifying glass are starting to hurt.
search for "Universal Access" (under system settings), and change the "text size".
So I'm coming just a little late to this conversation...I found it through trying to solve the same problem.
The "Universal Access" button is not where I would think to look for ordinary system settings. But I went there, and found two options to make the fonts bigger than they are now.
I don't want them bigger. They just *got* bigger through the occasional (seemingly) mandatory forgetting of all my previous settings, to the point that they take more screen space than I want. I want the fonts smaller. How do I do that?
Seriously, can it be that a classic font selection dialog, like what we've had since, well, forever, is too much for GNOME 3? I feel like I'm missing something. We have different monitors, different needs, different preferences; a single font selection will never work for everybody. Please tell me this is coming back?
Thanks,
