changing on-screen size of dimensions?

changing on-screen size of dimensions?

(OP)
i've been using ideas for about 5 weeks now, and have worked on several projects with it. Yet I still haven't figured out how to change the size of dimensions (they're visible size on the screen. There is a slider in the Viewing Options that changes the sizes of Labels, but dimensions remain the same.

The main problem is that I have several circles near each other on a part, and I have trouble selecting between modifing their diameters since the numbers appear on screen larger than the circles themselves. Thanks to all repliers for any help!
