/scaleui *** (where *** is a %) is a quick way of changing the scale without going back in to settings. It's the only way I personally know of changing the scale to get something that suits. I have it around 150 or 175 for my 4k monitor but ymmv.

If you're using Windows, I use the Window native scaling for my 4K monitor - set that to 125%. Of course that scales everything, not just FG.

You'll need an extension. Check the first few posts stickied at the top of the ruleset that you are going to be using.

There are a few themes available for certain rulesets - these are activated as extensions when loading a campaign.

If these don't give you what you're looking for there are a few extensions around that change some aspect of the graphics in certain rulesets. For example, this one changes the colour of the sidebar buttons: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?32740-Colored-5e-Sidebar

You may also find that you might like a combination of the scaleui mixed with some of the Bog Font extensions. The BF extensions don't change the button size, but do affect the text sizes.

Personally I drop the resolution of my screen, 4k on a 15" laptop is... tough :)
