RapidWeaver Elements 0.9.6 (23600)

Hi - new Elements user here.

I realise it’s still under development, but the UI could be improved to make readability much easier on the eyes. The left-hand panel showing the Pages, Resources, and Components is far too dim and icons very small. I’d like to see a config setting to allow font and icon sizes to be changed for readability.

Hmmm, the contrast seems quite good here 🤔

Can you post a screenshot of how it looks on your Mac?

List view - Indeed - the fonts are marginally bigger, but the icons remain the same size. It’s not just this particular panel that’s affected - the right hand panel showing the component settings is similar.

It’s just a pain to try and read. Ideally a good solution would be to have a config setting that allows a user to make the text bigger, or even bold.

If it’s too difficult, then perhaps changing the panel background (as a config item) so as to highlight the text may be another good solution?
