| 42 | | Only the non-modal dialogs and the preferences are needed here |
| | 28 | * The **[wikitr:/Help/MainToolbar Main toolbar]** has buttons for actions and presets |
| | 29 | * The panels in the **[wikitr:/Help/ToggleDialogs Sidebar]** inform about the loaded data and the [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/SelectionList#Selection Selection] |
| | 30 | * The **[wikitr:/Help/StatusBar Status Bar]** shows the drawing position |
| | 31 | * The Working mode is indicated in the **[wikitr:/Help/EditToolbar Edit toolbar]**. |
| | 32 | Therefore the buttons in its upper part are important screen elements. |

| | 44 | All screen elements have their own [wikitr:/Help/Action/Help help context] in JOSM. |
| | 45 | Other dialogs exist |
| | 46 | for setting [wikitr:/Help/Action/Preferences Preferences], for managing [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/ChangesetManager Changesets], for resolving [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/Conflict Conflicts], for editing [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/RelationEditor Relations] and for browsing the [wikitr:/Help/Action/ObjectHistory History of an object]. |

| | 48 | Only the non-modal dialogs and the preferences should be listed above |
| | 49 | Please no additional icons. For example JOSMImage(dialogs/relationlist) may mean the Relation editor, but it is already shown twice in the screenshot for other elements. Offering a third meaning brings no benefit. |
| | 52 | === Changing the User Interface Scale === |
| | 53 | You can change the scaling factor of the user interface to better suit your screen or needs: |
| | 54 | 1. Go to Edit -> Preferences (or hit F12) |
| | 55 | 2. Scroll down to the category 'Advanced Preferences' |
| | 56 | 3. In the search box above the list of various configuration entries, enter `gui` to filter the list. This way you will be able to get quickly to the relevant entries. |
| | 57 | 4. Adjust elements to your needs by changing entries starting with `gui.scale` or ending with `.font`. For example, to increase everything by 50%, change all of them from '1.0' to '1.5'. |
| | 58 | 5. In addition, you can also change only certain Icon sets. As in step 4, filter the list by `iconsize` and change according to your needs. For example, increase the default icon size by changing 'iconsize.default' to '36'. |
| | 59 | 6. **Restart** JOSM for the changes to take effect. |
