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,
