Setting desktop font size

Help
1

I’m new to KDE so probably missing something obvious here :slight_smile:

The KDE configuration center allows me to change all font sizes, except that I cannot seem to change the font size used for desktop icons. Is there a way to do that? (short of changing the global DPI setting, which IMHO doesn’t sound right).

Operating System: Kubuntu 24.04
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.12
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0
Qt Version: 5.15.13
Kernel Version: 6.14.0-37-generic (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland

you can adjust the font size for ALL items using this button

just check only the font size in the window that opens.

Oh, well, thank you. That is obvious in hindsight, but I was expecting a dedicated setting as for the other kinds of items :slight_smile:
