just an FYI:
1) welcome

2) there are literally "Aware EXPERTS" on the forum here - and most are willing to help, but you have to help us.
Hastily written terse questions do not help and may get your Q overlooked.
Glad you have a Mac - many of us do - so you know how easy it is to take a screen cap.
You'll get best results [from the Forum] if you post an image or two along with your Q.

3) I have a Mac with a high-res screen, and I've changed my size to Tahoma 20 - but, there's many screens in the Config Tool that don't "scale" properly. If you bring up a Dialog box, the type is bigger but the window size didn't increase. This makes things "scrunched" or even hidden - and because you're not familiar with the tool - you won't even know whats hidden/cut off (of course you can enlarge that dialog box, but you won't KNOW or remember to do that all the time). Tahoma 14/15 might be a better size (yes, more tiny).

3b) Eclipse doesn't work on Big Sur correctly. Catalina is fine. Bruce can address that if thats an issue for you.

Don't know about your experience level, but theres HUNDREDS of years of programming/tool development amongst the regular users here- yes, we have some issues with Aware but we're here using this tool because its pretty fast and allows us to do a lot. Because the end-user UI uses the Kendo grid system, you can't make as pretty of screens as you can with a tool thats making native Desktop screens. Once you learn the "Aware way" of doing things, it allows even less-technical users to accomplish lots of things.
