VSCode editor, increase font size for menus

In the VSCode editor (Windows10 64bit), is there a way to increase the font size for menus -- both dropdown and popup?

Preferences -> Settings -> Window -> Zoom Level: 0

Adjust the zoom level of the window. The original size is 0 and each increment above (e.g. 1) or below (e.g. -1) represents zooming 20% larger or smaller. You can also enter decimals to adjust the zoom level with a finer granularity.

This setting will change the fontSize for certain items, like intellisense suggestions:

// Font size for the suggest widget

  "editor.suggestFontSize": 0,

If you mean menus font-size only I realize in my attempt to answer the question I failed. Perhaps they expect such a setting be OS-level settable, I feel there is a need for it inside VScode just like there is editor and terminal font size options there should be the obvious "menu.fontsize" : 14,

However, if you would like to increase/decrease font-size of everything else in unison, then there is something the average user would not search for, I searched in the settings for "font" :) For this you can add the following to your vscode/settings.json file:

"window.zoomLevel": 0.4

0 is default, it accepts decimals with a leading zero :) 0.4 works for my eyes. I hope this helps someone

The settings embedded documentation currently says: // Adjust the zoom level of the window. The original size is 0 and each increment above (e.g. 1) or below (e.g. -1) represents zooming 20% larger or smaller. You can also enter decimals to adjust the zoom level with a finer granularity.
