# How to Change Font Size in Unity?

A guide to modifying font sizes in Unity games using the BepInEx framework and XUAT plugin.

{% hint style="info" %}
This method might not work for some games
{% endhint %}

### Step 1: Enable Console

* Open the file `"GAME_DIR\BepInEx\config\BepInEx.cfg"`
* In the \[Logging.Console] section, change "Enabled = false" to "Enabled = true"

{% code title="GAME\_DIR\BepInEx\config\BepInEx.cfg" overflow="wrap" %}

```ini
[Logging.Console]

## Enables showing a console for log output.
# Setting type: Boolean
# Default value: false
Enabled = true
```

{% endcode %}

### Step 2: Enable Text Path Logging

* Open the file `"GAME_DIR\BepInEx\config\AutoTranslatorConfig.ini"`
* In the \[Behaviour] section, change "EnableTextPathLogging=False" to "EnableTextPathLogging=True"

{% code title="GAME\_DIR\BepInEx\config\AutoTranslatorConfig.ini" overflow="wrap" %}

```ini
[Behaviour]
EnableTextPathLogging=True
```

{% endcode %}

### Step 3: Launch the game and find the Text Path in the Console

If configured correctly, a console window will appear, showing the Game Text and Text Path

{% code overflow="wrap" %}

```powershell
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Setting text on '???' to '???' # <-- Game Text
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Path : ??? # <-- Text Path
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Level: ???
```

{% endcode %}

### Step 4: Creating a Resizer File

**Create a file named "resizer.txt"** into the folder "GAME\_DIR\BepInEx\Translation\en\Text\\".\
For example: "GAME\_DIR\BepInEx\Translation\en\Text\resizer.txt"

{% hint style="info" %}
You can create more than one of these files. Each file must be a .txt file with the name ending in "resizer". Example: mainmenu\_resizer.txt, dialogue.resizer.txt, \_resizer.txt
{% endhint %}

#### **Syntax:**

```ini
TextPath=Command
```

where available commands are:

* Commands that change the font size to a static size
  * `ChangeFontSizeByPercentage(double percentage)`: Where the percentage is the percentage of the original font size to reduce it to.
  * `ChangeFontSize(int size)`: Where the size if the new size of the font
  * `IgnoreFontSize()`: This can be used to reset font resize behavior that was set on a very 'non-specific' path.

### Example of the font resizer syntax in the Quickie Game:

{% code title="Console" %}

```powershell
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Setting text on 'TMPro.TextMeshProUGUI' to 'Lorem Ipsum...'
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Path : /UIManager/ui_conversation/limiter/panel_dialogue/normal/txtmeshDialogueNormal
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Level: -1
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Setting text on 'UnityEngine.UI.Text' to 'It is a long...'
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Path : /UIManager/ui_conversation/limiter/choices/panel_choices/ui_conversation_option(Clone)/text
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Level: -1
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Setting text on 'UnityEngine.UI.Text' to 'Contrary to popular...'
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Path : /UIManager/ui_conversation/limiter/choices/panel_choices/ui_conversation_option(Clone)/text
[Info   :XUnity.AutoTranslator] Level: -1
```

{% endcode %}

{% code title="resizer.txt" %}

```ini
/UIManager/ui_conversation/limiter/panel_dialogue/normal/txtmeshDialogueNormal=ChangeFontSizeByPercentage(0.75)
/UIManager/ui_conversation/limiter/choices/panel_choices/ui_conversation_option(Clone)/text=ChangeFontSizeByPercentage(0.75)
```

{% endcode %}

{% hint style="info" %}
ChangeFontSizeByPercentage(0.75)

* 0.5 = 50%
* 1 = 100%
* 1.5 = 150%
  {% endhint %}

{% code title="mainmenu\_resizer.txt" %}

```ini
/mainmenu/limiter/content/bg/info/butons/btnNewGame/Text=ChangeFontSize(16)
/mainmenu/limiter/content/bg/info/butons/btnLoadGame/Text=ChangeFontSize(16)
/mainmenu/limiter/content/bg/info/butons/btnOptions/Text=ChangeFontSize(16)
/mainmenu/limiter/content/bg/info/butons/btnCredits/Text=ChangeFontSize(16)
/mainmenu/limiter/content/bg/info/butons/btnQuit/Text=ChangeFontSize(16)

# Or for all groups "/mainmenu/limiter/content/bg/info/butons"

/mainmenu/limiter/content/bg/info/butons=ChangeFontSize(16)
```

{% endcode %}
