I think the title is already clear enough.
I have been able to change the font for my editor through accessing:
Preferences > Editor > Color Scheme > Font
But happens that some of my fonts are not available there; although a lot of them they are. This happens to me in this machine with the FightingSpirit font. Not that I want to use it but it's one where the issue happens.
At work I have added ligatures to the Menlo font using an open source project and it doesn't show up. I've tried disabling Show only monospaced fonts and although more fonts show up, some of the fonts still are not available.
Is there any fix for this, is it impossible for some fonts or am I doing something wrong?
EDIT
I have been able to set that ligaturized font to some of my editors and terminal, so the font is not corrupted and does work.
After some IDE updates the font showed up so the problem fixed itself

Is there any way to change the font size on the sidebar/project tree?
I have tried the default font size and theme font size and any font size I could find, but those only change the text editor or console or tab title...
I googled "intellij idea project view font" and came across this post that provided this answer which worked for me.
Appearance & Behavior > Appearance > Use custom font
Every font I try to change to that isn't Consolas or Courier just shows up as Courier.
I don't understand. Terminal, FixedSys, Terminus (custom), Lucida Console, and every other mono-space font I tried using just comes up as Courier.
I've ran VS as Administrator, re-logged, changed my control panel font size settings, tried different zoom %'s within VS, change the font size around a bunch within VS as well... nothing seems to work.
I googled around and couldn't find anyone with the same problem. Any help much appreciated!
How do I change the font in VS2012's test results window ?
I'm guessing it's somewhere under Environment -> Fonts and Colors but there's just too many options there. Here's an image for clarification:
Yes, this is an awful bug that makes the already unusable test explorer even more unusable. There is a workaround, and that is to set Environment -> Fonts and Colors -> Environment Font which will change the font in the test explorer window. But this changes everything too.
How to change the font size of the Resharper?
I found the font size of File Structure, Live Templates and other UI components unbearably small.
I couldn't find any options to customize font size. I tried to increase Windows DPI to 150%. That works but cause a lot of other problems.
I'm using Resharper 5.1.3.
Thanks
ReSharper still uses system font settings for many of its controls. Use the Control Panel to change font size in these controls.
Same as changing the colors, it's in visual studio options not resharper.
but under resharper settings.
Look at this link:
Changing Resharper's color scheme
look carefully at the issues presented in some user's visual studio. I had to reinstall resharper in order to change the color and font size.
if i use a dark theme then links in Eclipse-"quick fix" or in i.e. Eclipse->Preferences->General->Editor (the three 'see... "File Associaton"|"Content Types"|"Appearance"'-links) are unreadable.
On this image the links i am talking about are cyan on grey:
I found a solution for Windows/XP:
The hover uses the same colors as the on your system. On Windows you
can change that via Display settings > Appearance > Advanced: ToolTip.
The link color is the one used in your browser (IE on Windows).
However, i need a solution for Linux (XFCE 4.8.1/GTK)
I checked/tested all settings of Eclipse and i found no setting for this link-color. It seems to be a system-setting (GTK), so i already tried to add this to gtkrc:
style "default" {
GtkWidget::link-color = "#ffffff"
}
class "GtkWidget" style "default"
but this did not change the link color in Eclipse.
I hope you can help - thanks!

Use the colors menu (the first entry in the picture):
And redefine the tooltip background color:
Then enjoy the readable popups:
Install gnome-color-chooser and customize the tooltip color as described here:

I'll chime in here, since I have the same issue.
There is no fix for this, when running Eclipse on Unix (KDE, Gnome, etc).
The color for links, which is used in the QuickFix list as well as various other places in the UI (such as Preferences panels), is hardcoded.
On Windows, you are luckier, since Eclipse uses the native link widget, which takes its colors from system settings.
On non-Windows, you are stuck with a dark-blue hardcoded color.
What it should do, at least on GTK, is use the GtkWidget::link-color setting. But it doesn't, currently.
If you want to see it fixed, either upvode this bug or fix the code yourself:
