Description:
Improve the readability of UI elements like list widgets, stepped dials, and radio buttons by offering customizable or larger font size options.
Problem:
For many users, especially in live performance or low-light situations, the current text size in list-based or selection-based widgets is too small to read comfortably and quickly. This limits usability and increases the chance of errors.
Proposed Solution:
– Add adjustable font size settings for:
- List widgets
- Stepped dials
- Radio button groups
– Allow bold/high-contrast modes for better visibility
– Possibly include UI scaling presets or per-widget overrides
Benefits:
✅ Better accessibility for users with impaired vision or on small screens
✅ Faster and more accurate navigation in live contexts
✅ Less eye strain, more focus on performance
✅ Aligns with UX expectations of modern touchscreen apps

I was about to create a similar feature request when I saw this one.
One addition I think would be helpful for stepped dials is being able to swap the label and action/setting text so that the action/setting displays on the dial and the label is below it.
Might not be useful for many use cases but I use step dials for several things that are just numbers (master cycle length, drum presets etc.) so with this, and larger text, it would really make them more visible and useful.
