You can use the Display settings to control the appearance of the Vivado IDE. To open the Settings dialog box (shown in the previous figure), select Tools > Settings, and then click the Display category.

Scaling
Sets the font scaling for the display, making the Vivado IDE easier to use on high resolution monitors. By default, this option is set to Use OS font scaling, which uses the value set for your primary monitor. Alternatively, you can select User defined setting to specify a value between 90% to 300% that is used by the Vivado tools only.
Spacing
Sets the amount of space between elements, such as icons and text, in the Vivado IDE. Comfortable is the default setting, and Compact reduces the amount of space between elements to fit more elements into a smaller space.
Messages
Specifies the maximum number of messages to display.
Hyperlinks
Specifies the action to take when you click a path delay link in a timing report, including whether to provide a description, display a menu, or select a cell pin, cell, or site.
Rendering
Sets the font rendering settings. By default, the operating system determines this setting, but you can override the default in the Vivado display settings window.
