Thanks. That gives me some features and search criteria on which to search
for similar utilities. I saved a shortcut to the site to look at it later.
And designing a UI to compensate for changes in font size and scaling should
always be a consideration in UI design. That was my point.
Themes have been available for Windows for very long time, and they can
