How to make Menu, Ribbon, and Browser Text much larger for visually impaired ?

Installation is now complete and product is registered. 

I need to increase the size of certain items in the Inventor enviroment becasue I am visually paired,

 

1) Toolbar Icons: I really need them to be twice the size.

2) Menu Text: Again twice the size (at least)

3) Ribbon Icons: Twice the size WITH text and text twice the size.  ( am able to select Ribbob "Large" but then the text goes away)

4) Browser: Everthing in browser needs to be Twice the size (at least).

 

I undersatnd for smaller monitors all of the above would limit the drawing area. Becasue of my poor vision I have Dual 30" monitors with resolution 2560X1600 to assist with my need to display larger text and icons in other programs. 

Please DO NOT refer me to that silly Windows Magnifier it's a joke and MS should be ashamed of it.

 

I hope Autodesk is able to help..... let's see.

Thanks

AutoCAD's OPTIONS command, DISPLAY tab, check the box USE LARGE BUTONS FOR TOOLBARS.
Then same location, next CheckBox down, to resize Ribbon icons (or look up RIBBONICONSIZE system variable).
Plus what you found for the Ribbon as you noted.

Everything else is controlled by Windows Display settings for the most part.

Good luck.

Thanks but... ! There is NO such check box.

 

I forgot to mention I'm using Inventor2014 LT ..

 

Any other suggestions ?

Post and ask your peers in the Inventor forum please: yours is not an installation problem.
