Font size in Python editor can't be changed

(Rhino 8, Mac, Python 3 Script in Gh)

I changed the font size of my script editor in Tools > Options, but set it too small, and now I can’t read anything. The Options bar won’t open anymore, it says ‘Error occurred in command “Options”’. I’ve tried reloading the engine, restarting Rhino, restarting the Mac, letting it sleep for a night, the problem persists. I can’t code anymore! Help!

Oh no! Does it persist between loading another grasshoper file, and between restarting Rhino? Is the Iron Python 2 component affected too?

The first thing the McNeel devs will ask is that you post your SystemInfo. So try to run that Rhino command and copy/paste the output here. And welcome on board :slight_smile:

Yes to all of those, sadly :confused:

Good point, thank you!

@Dominic_Weber I will look into this and see if I can replicate. Thanks for SystemInfo. In the meantime you can change the font settings in the ~/.rhinocode/editor.json file to something more reasonable
