Hello,

To permanently increase the IDE toolbar icon size, you can edit the IDE's configuration file (eclipse.ini) and add the following lines: -Dswt.enable.autoScale=true -Dswt.autoScale=150 -Dswt.autoScale.method=nearest. Adjust the 150 value to scale the icons to your preference.

I hope the solution worked for you.

Hi,

I have the same problem.

I tried the solution offered here, but it doesn't seem to change the icon sizes.

Instead of changing the icon sizes, it messes up the maximise an minimise icons and the gutters (where breakpoints etc are shown). If the scaling factor is set to 100, there is no effect at all and the mess doesn't happen.

index.php/fa/44634/0/

I looked at the github for eclipse.platform.swt and discovered method can be set ti auto, smooth or nearest - so I tried each one in turn

I'm running eclipse on Macos Ventura 13.6.7.

Any ideas ?
