How can I increase the icon text size in Ubuntu 18.04? I have tried using gnome-tweaks but I was only able to change font size of window titles and interface items.

Here is a screen shot of three icons from my desktop and I want to change the font size of the text below each icon.

  • it is possible to select the text below the icons on Desktop, others are related with "Interface" in gnome-tweaks.

  1. Open dconf Editor. If not yet installed, install it by the following command in terminal.
    sudo apt update && sudo apt-get install dconf-editor -y

  2. search with keywords nautilus, open /org/gnome/nautilus/

  3. open Desktop and then choose font (Desktop font)
  4. give your preferred value.

please see the below pics, where i changed font sizes from 'sans normal' 5,10,15 & 20
