Siemens NX1867 Measure Tool Font size display

[HWAeroEngr]

Using the Siemens NX1867 Measure Tool, I can display the annotation on the screen, and set the color, but if I Zoom out on the model the text gets tiny. (It doesn't stay proportional to the screen size). How do I set the font size to be visible when zooming out? The tutorials all seem to leave this out.
The old measure tool works fine, but as soon as I get out of the dialog box, it loses the # of decimal places that are set. Overall still much prefer the old measurement tool from NX 11 - much more elegant and quick.

I think you can control by adjusting the resolution calibration values up, in visualisation preferences.
Use the sliders & apply. FYI, this will change the size of displayed WCS and the view triad (other things might be affected, but I can't remember what).

It did change the WCS size, but unfortunately not the measurement size - but thanks for tryin'

It does work.

You can't just change the values to 150. You need to see the circle diamater increase to quite a large size and you may have to edit the dimension & click OK for the size change to occur.
