Hi Uwe, This sounds familiar - at our recent workshop I have observed several participants struggling with a very tiny letters on high-res screens, and prompted by that, demonstrated how one could adjust the font and also the colour once and for all subsequent sessions. I think, that if it's not possible to built-in into the installation, then indeed, at least adding some text to installation instructions or instructor notes would be useful.
Thanks for the suggestion!
