How to change the toolbar and icons scale in IntelliJ IDEA?

It seems to me that in my IDE everything is too petty. I would like there to be a font about the same as inside the editor. How can I do it?

enter image description here

And how can I increase the scale of the launch icons? Although I see everything perfectly, it seems inconvenient for me.

There is also a "Compact mode" option which helps (IntelliJ IDEA 2024.2.1 (Ultimate Edition)):

It's 2024. Now we got a proper feature (Option to scale down the entire IDE) in 2024.1 version:

Menu View -> Appearance -> Zoom IDE

IntelliJ IDEA user interface/icons are scaled automatically depending on the system DPI/scaling settings.

You can try to override it in Help | Edit Custom VM Options (effective after IDE restart):

-Dide.ui.scale=1.5

Menu/toolbar font/size can be overridden in the IDE Appearance settings:

font

More details can be found in this document.
