As I am getting older…I would love to increase the TD tiny text size. Especially in the textport.
Yes, I know I can do it for the whole OS but (most of) other apps are fine.

+1, font size and colour parameters are the two big ticket items for parameters in general.
I’ve seen Derivative add a ton of amazing features over the past decade, but almost nothing has happened to the UX. Could really use some TLC in 2022.
The textport font is scalable in the latest experimental build that is available here: Releases | Derivative
It’s still a work in progress and doesn’t update dynamically at the moment, but if you go into Preferences in the Edit menu, under the DAT tab you can change the ‘Preferred Text Size’. This will change the size of the font in the textport, but you might need to restart TouchDesigner right now for it to take affect.
This also changes the text size in DATs that are not set to ‘Auto’ in their right-click Zoom menus.
I hope that helps. UX is definitely high on our priority list, but it is a pretty full list at the moment 
There are some cool new UI features in the experimental like high-dpi rendering, DAT syntax coloring and the new comment and network boxes.

Thanks a lot Rob!
Fwiw, the entire UI in the 2022 version (experimental now) got a font size increase to help out as much as possible in our current UI.
