How do I make maya 2015 font bigger by stylesheet ?

[oglop]

It seems I can use this to make most ui font bigger, but not for outliner.

from PyQt4 import QtGui
app = QtGui.QApplication.instance()

styleSheet = '''

* {
font: 16px;
}
'''

app.setStyleSheet(styleSheet)

I tried to get qt object of outlinerPanel1Window and called setFont() on it, but it doesn't work.

Stylesheets may not be the most reliable way. Have you tried just playing with the Application font?

font = QtGui.qApp.font()
font.setPixelSize(16)
QtGui.qApp.setFont(font)

yes I have tried that, it does not affect outliner font either. And it does not change font size on the top edge of viewport while CSS method works for that.

Ah sorry. I misread and was actually looking at the ChannelBox and not the Outliner, like you asked. 

I don't know how effect the Outliner off hand. it is free to ignore QFont and stylesheet settings, and draw however it wants in its own implementation.

We're manipulating the MayaStrings file for Maya 2015: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lidN_bJSS0

That works but in production environment, I have no power to edit that file, plus our maya is on a network share. It affects everyone.

maybe I can use mount -bind to replace that file, but I have no root privileges. or maybe I can use https://github.com/proot-me/PRoot , but I can not compile it in office. and it may affect our maya launcher.
