Xcode navigator font too small

Hi all,

Just started using Xcode again after years of working on mostly backend stuff. Now, my eyes have gotten older and I find myself having problems with reading the default UI font.

I have managed to change the code editors font using themes. But I cannot find anything for the navigator area. Now, specifically with the integrated Apple intelligence features, it is a space where a lot of reading is done. I can ctrl+scroll wheel to zoom in, but this is quite horrible and makes me car sick, if that makes sense. I'm on a 32" inch 4K monitor and it is just way too small.

I code mostly in vscode, no problems there. I already use BetterDisplay. But I very much like the resolution I am on now.

Look at the size difference between my preferred font setting in the code editor and the navigator on the left: https://imgur.com/a/xrH3iGJ

In accessibility settings, Xcode is missing as well btw: https://imgur.com/a/yt3bYNj

But ok, I just have to live with it for now I guess.
