Has Microsoft removed the zoom for results view in SQL Server Management Studio

I have just upgraded to SSMS 2018 and have noticed that the results text seems much smaller and is hard to read from further away.

I have tried changing the font size however it only changed the font size of the query pane.

Maybe I am missing something here?

Press Ctrl-T to change the output of the query window to text. Rerun your query and then Ctrl-scrollwheel will zoom both the query and results. Not as nice as the grid, but it's a quick & easy solution when screen sharing, for example.

Another method is to click anywhere on the query or results window. Then hold down the "CTRL" and scroll your mouse button up or down. This changes the size of the text.

From the SSMS Tools menu, choose Options. Then in the search box type 'FON', choose 'Font and Colors' and from the drop down list labeled 'Show settings for : ' choose 'Grid Results'. Enlarge the font size. Restart SSMS and your view will be much better.
