Is there a way to set the size of Resharper's DataTips?

Time:09-06

I am using Visual Studio 2022 (latest update) with Resharper Ultimate (also the latest version). Here's what my window looks like during my latest debugging session:

enter image description here

The Resharper DataTips completely obscure my code. And each other

So I went into Tools >> Options >> Environment >> Fonts and Colors

I changed the category to "Text Editor" and scrolled down to "Reshaper Debugger Tips". Changed the font size there. No effect whatsoever. Not even when I shut down and restarted visual Studio.

Does anyone know how to shrink these down? I do know how to remove them completely but that's not what I want. I just want them to stop obscuring everything.

(I know these tips are from Resharper because when I disable it, they disappear.)

CodePudding user response:

This might be down to whether you are using the Visual Studio IntelliSense Font or the Text Editor Font for the debug hints (ReSharper->Options...->Tools->Debugger->Editor Integration):

Try setting it to the 'Text Editor font'. Not sure exactly which Font setting (under Tools->Options...->Fonts and Colors) defines the IntelliSense font though, but you could scroll through the 'Show settings for' list to see if any are set larger than they need to be. Or you could reset all your Visual Studio font settings. Some of the font settings may only take effect when restarting Visual Studio though.

Note (relating to your comments), this could also be due to using small fonts and high zoom levels.
