Match Windows 11 type ramp in settings and menus#152
Merged
Conversation
The Fluent redesign left text one step under the WinUI ramp it imitates: menus were 12px where Win11 flyouts use 14px (and where the pre-redesign system menus were 13px), body text was 13px against WinUI's 14px, and captions sat at 11-11.5px below the ramp's 12px floor. On scaled screens the whole window read smaller than v5.4.0 and out of place next to native Win11 surfaces. Adopt the ramp: 14px body (window base, menus, sidebar nav, menu glyphs) and 12px captions (descriptions, preset examples, editor eyebrows, sidebar tool descriptions). Headers were already BodyStrong (14 SemiBold) and the title 20, matching Subtitle.

Text in the settings window and context menus reads smaller than before the Fluent redesign, especially on scaled screens, and sits one step under the Windows 11 type ramp the design imitates. Measured against a stock machine:
SystemFonts.MenuFontSize(12-13px, tracks OS text size)SystemFonts.MessageFontSize(12-13px)So menus genuinely shrank vs v5.4.0, and everything is 1px under the WinUI ramp, which is exactly the "slightly too small, out of place next to real Win11 surfaces" impression.
