Tutorial on how to set a larger font size in MP3 Diags

On some screen resolutions, the font size used in MP3 Diags may appear very small.

If you want to see a larger font in the MP3 Diags GUI, you can set the QT_SCALE_FACTOR as a temporary new Windows environment value like this
set QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.47
before you start the
MP3DiagsWindows.exe

You can do that manually in a CMD window or write two lines in a CMD-Batchfile
Start_Mp3Diags_with_bigger_font.cmd
like this:

set QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.47
"C:\path\to\your\MP3Diags\MP3DiagsWindows.exe"

You can choose the value that best suits your visual needs.
I recommend a value between 1 and 2.

This works for the current stable MP3 Diags version v1.4.0.1 and the newest unstable version v1.5.0.3.
