On my mac OS 10.5, in Netbeans 6.7.1, the fonts in my class diagram look very chunky and huge. Can I set the font sizes globally somewhere? I'd like to make them all smaller.
Go to Tools > Options > Font & Colors, and click on th ellipsis button next to Font text box.

I need to change DVT eclipse menu size. also in properties view and Project Explorer.
High DPI make them larger than the code font size.
Although this soultion did work it was complicated and change only the Project Explorer (without Menu and Project)
DVT Version - dvt_eclipse_20.1.37-e46
As mentioned in DVT "Themes" documentation page.
To change the fonts, please go to Window > Preferences > DVT > Themes.
You will find there the option to change both the Editor Font and the UI Font (the second one is what you are looking for)
I installed the latest Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers (Windows 64-bit) recently.
When changing Text Font to my personal preference I realized that this setting and those derived from it (C/C++ Editor Text font, C/C++ Build Console Text Font, Structured Text Editor Text Font) are not respected in Generic Text Editor, Text Editor, C/C++ Editor, XML Editor.
Funny thing is: If I Reset Text Font the font name in the Preview below is empty(!), just the font size is displayed there and the text preview's font is the font that's used in all the editors mentioned above.
Is this a (known?) bug or what am I missing here?
UPDATE
Preferences:
This is NOT Courier New:
I downloaded and extracted the package once again and now the font preferences work as usual.

I had the same question, my Eclipse uses GTK so I tried to change the font size via the Kubuntu system settings and it worked. It applies also to pop-up hints in Eclipse.
How can I change the Eclipse GUI font size?
For instance, I would like to make the font for "Project Explorer" or "Members" smaller.

I use Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java Developers Version: 2020-09 (4.17.0) on MacOS Catalina. The font size of Eclipse package explorer was very small and hard to read.
You can change it through eclipse preferences (shortcut: Command key + ,)
It looks a lot better now.
I don't know if you can change the font for one specific section. However, you can do it for Eclipse as a whole, in Preferences → General → Appearance → Colors and Fonts → View and Editor Folders, on Part title font and View message font.
Eclipse Project/Package explorer, Outline window are using OS default font for labels.
For Win 7+ go to Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Personalization click 'Window Color' to start 'Window Color and Appearance' dialog.
Decrease 'Message Box' font.
Eclipse restart required
In newer versions of Eclipse this becomes configurable (Tree and Table font for views)
Most of the controls in Eclipse (such as tree views) use native OS widgets. For these, the font face or size cannot be adjusted in Eclipse. You have to adjust it at OS level.
What font preferenc drives the Eclipse Debug view font? I feel I have tried all the ones that make sense (including the ones under Debug) and none seem to change it.
I'm on Eclipse 4.2.1 on OSX 10.8.2 if it matters.
There is no way in Eclipse to change the font used for Package Explorer, Debug View and other such views. You can only change the font for editor views. This is a policy decision on the part of the Eclipse developers. The font used is the one set by the general look-and-feel for whatever desktop you are using.
On Windows 7, you can affect many of the eclipse GUI fonts, including the Debug View and the Project Explorer by going to:
Control Panel -> Personalization -> Window Color and Appearance -> Advanced Appearance Settings
Change the font size for "Message Box".
Of course this messes with the appearance of other stuff in your OS, but I've found that tolerable compared to squinting at the debug view...
In eclipse for Mac m1: go to preferences ->general->appreances -> colors and fonts ->select any option under Debug and click edit.
