When I hover the mouse over a reference in the desktop app, the info box that appears is a smaller font size than the resource text. Is there any way to enlarge this to make it more readable?

    In preferences or program settings under accessibility you will find program scaling and content scaling. Try playing with these to see if it helps.

    This is a frequently requested feature by people who read original languages. Seems like an easy improvement. I don’t really like the info pane, and the tool tip is far too small in comparison with the text size. Tool tip does everything I need, but it’s so small. If you make it big enough to read, the text of the Bible to be way too big. 

    Please, Logos, give us more control of the tool tip window. Libronix had the ability to do this, and I’ve missed it ever since.

    I'm struggling with the same thing:  the text I hover over with the mouse isn't readable.  It's so small no one could read it.  What's the point in ever using a font that small?  And I tried program settings and have not been able to find a setting that increases the size of the mouse hover text.  Isn't it surprising that this small detail can cause so much frustration and disappointment?

    Greetings M3155a

    With my text size set at four from the left I find that the pop-up text is only maginally smaller than the text in the Bible pane.

    Do you, like Brian eschew the information panel as an alternative source?

    Yep.

    - Display space is limited.  Severely limited.  The Info panel is a space-waster in and of itself.

    - Moves my focus from the problem (at least for me, if there were space, the Info panel is far-far away).

    - Info panel itself, is almost never glance-able.  I have to locate, inside the Info panel. That's the whole point of popups.

    - Faithlife could easily fix it.  Didn't used to be so small.  (I'm sure someone will say, it's almost impossible to fix).

    - Make it a bundle-fix: crazy OL font sizing and popup font sizing.  How's that.

    I'm thinking subscription.  Our new feature that allows you to read the popups!!  Yes ... an included magnifying panel that can be installed overtop those tiny popups we can't fix!

    Oh, almost forgot.  I checked your example and indeed you're correct.  However.  The sizes aren't the same for some reason.  On the LHI, smaller.  Not sure why.

    I find it much easier to read the information tool tip (popups) if my Bible windown/tab is small like Mike's. If, however, the Bible tab runs from top to bottom and the text is set to something like the default setting for 120% content setting, it's nearly unusable on my M3 Macbook Air, which is a fairly high res screen.
