Revision history [back]

I also experienced this problem when switching to a different monitor (with a different display resolution). I think if the new monitor has a higher resolution, then the font will be too small, and if it has a lower resolution, then the font will be too large. I don't see any way to control the font size of the display filter text box in the Wireshark preferences. This also affects the capture filter text box as well as the dialog boxes in Edit/Preferences. The only way I could get back to a normal font size was to reboot my Windows PC.
