The font size can be changed for sql editor in preferences. Is there a way to change the font size of the browser tree in the left frame?

As of pgAdmin4 v5.1 there is a File > Runtime menu that allows you to zoom in and out, which will affect all fonts in pgAdmin.

You can just use CTRL +/- to adjust font size, on the fly. It works fine for PGAdmin 4 v6.0.

pgAdmin4 starts his own webserver accessible at http://127.0.0.1:34809/browser/

From there you can easily change font size with usual browser options as ctrl + and ctrl -.

Make a text file called 'qt.conf' with the following contents: 

[Platforms]
WindowsArguments = dpiawareness=0

Then put this in your pgAdmin folder, e.g. C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\10\pgAdmin 4\bin and re-run pgAdmin.

On Linux you could use QT_SCALE_FACTOR environment variable. And eventually QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR to adjust.

So the following command should work from console:

export QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.5                     ## or any number
pgadmin4

Else:

export QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0           ## as boolean
export QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.5                     ## as float
pgadmin4

  • Neither one of these worked for me with Ubuntu 22.04 (running the traditional Xorg display server). What made a difference was enabling "Large Fonts" in system accessibility options.
