Depending on your machine model and year of manufacture, this step might be optional. It is necessary to follow it if the PlanetCNC user interface does not seem correct or optimized.

Instructions

    1. Navigate to File -> Settings -> User Interface.
      1. From that menu, you can change the font size of the coordinates, the colors in the 3D space, or even choose to display the active G-codes or not.
        1. As an example, you can decide to modify the size of the top toolbar, by going to the Toolbars sub-menu, and change to property Size Top.
