Default font type

Post by burgundy »

What font is being used as the default? It seems very similar to Arial.

I have been trying to change the font size (in the Options) to see more detail but got puzzled about which is the default.

Default means Windows' default font. And that is Segoe UI

Everything uses the default Windows dialog font.
This is usually MS Shell Dlg 2 or MS Shell Dlg.
This logical font maps to a real font that varies for each version of Windows.
  • Windows XP - Microsoft Sans Serif
    Windows Vista/7/8 - Tahoma
    Windows 10 - Segoe UI
