Ahh the veteran replies.... Thanks Chris. 

I had discovered the Fonts & Colors trick (Cmd-A etc). 

But it seems that when I increase the size for the Display then the Print
of a listing becomes disproportionally larger.

I think it's probably my not fully understanding the relationship between 
Display resolution and Print. But there ought to be an independent setting for Print font size.

As to CloseView I don't know if you are referring to CTL + scroller ball on mouse.
I do use this when required. Or are you referring to the pre-OS X facility?

Anyway thanks for the empathetic feedback from one old timer to another <grin>.

respect...

Peter

P.S. I have filed an enhancement request. Radar#7395180

What are my questions?
Is there any public documentation of the way to effect what I wish to do? If so where is it?
If not would one of you kind, bright young puppies at Apple please be so merciful as to document it and email me?


There are three controls for Xcode type sizes:

1) Xcode > Preferences > Fonts & Colors

  Click in the table, press Command-A to Select All, and double-click.   That opens the Font Panel in which you can set a larger font size.  This will affect the Source Code Editor only.

2) Setting PBXTableFont and PBXTableFontSize (as you've done): This affects the Groups and Files tree  and the Detail View only.

3) Xcode > Preferences > Debugging, there's a Console Font setting to make the Debug Console font larger.

There are no controls for changing the font size for other texts in Xcode, e.g. menus, help text, tool tips, Debugger data tips, Find results, Inspector panes, row heights in auxiliary windows, etc.  Sometimes using the systemwide CloseView facility helps, but it's a little vertiginous for me.
