Font size issue after updating to Android Studio 1.4

Question

This morning I updated to Android Studio 1.4 and the font size of my editor is much bigger that before. I Use the Darcula scheme. When I check the configuration for the Darcula scheme, it is using Monospaced font with 12 size.

Anyone else with the same issue, or is it just me?

Answer 1

I was able to fix the issue just by creating a copy of the scheme (by clicking on Save As...)

With the new scheme (with same configuration as before, just the scheme is different) the issue is resolved.

Answer 2

I had a similar problem when I updated to Android Studio 1.4. My font was broken. I thought it's because of my OS upgrade(OS X El Capitan). After trying lots of different stuffs I found that it's the problem with JDK.

You may be using higher version(>1.6) of JDK now. You just need to install JDK 1.6 which is the default for font rendering in Android Studio. If you're using OS X, then download JDK 1.6 from here abd install it. To check which version of java you are using run this command.

cd /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines && ls -l

After installing JDK 1.6. Restart Android Studio. You'll see your beautiful anti-aliased font back there. Cheers.
