Hi Ursula,

Hopefully the suggestion below is a permanent fix. I came across the same (or 
maybe similar problem) you’re having, but only when I tried to open pymol 
session files. I found that with the new update, if I just opened the pymol 
program, the font was fine and I could work and save a session without any 
problem. However when I tried to open a pymol session file directly, by double 
clicking on the file, the GUI font was incredibly small. As an intermediate 
fix, I found that opening the pymol program, and then opening the pymol session 
file through the “file; open” tabs, gave the correct font size.

Best,

Jade.

Hi, Ursula,

I have the same problem on my Pymol version 2.5.1 on the Mac Mojave system, I 
posted a solution from an old thread below that solved the problem.

"This looks like missing shader support, which is unexpected on modern Mac 
hardware. Can you try to set the "use_shaders" setting?

PyMOL> set use_shaders, 1

If this fixes it, then please check your ~/.pymolrc file if the use_shaders 
setting is wrongly disabled there (File > Edit pymolrc).

Cheers,

Best,

Xiao

I just updated my pymol version to 2.5, which now displays a tiny font in the 
internal GUI. The settings in pymol don't have an option for the GUI font. Does 
anybody have a suggestion on how to change the font size in the pymol GUI in 
version 2.5?

Thanks

Ursula
