Research direction

Find the “New Rule/Add New Rules” text boxes in the desktop application and inspect how their font size is set. Check the related form or dialog and its existing UI tests, if present. Done means the text is easier to read, especially with Arabic diacritics, or users can customize its size.

Description

Hello,

The font size in the “New Rule/Add New Rules” text boxes is far too small and difficult to read.

This may be less noticeable when working with English, French, and other languages, but it becomes a significant issue when working with Arabic, especially when adding diacritics (tashkeel), which require clear visibility to distinguish between characters.

Please consider increasing the font size or allowing users to customize it.
