The new font introduced recently for the UI I find hurts my eyes and would prefer the older font style.

Describe the solution you'd like

Some type of toggle in the option menu to use the older font style the program had.

Research direction

Start by locating the option menu and the code that selects the UI font. Trace how the existing and older font styles are defined and applied, then add a user-selectable setting whose effect is visible throughout the UI; verify the setting persists and both font choices render correctly.
