Preferences: font size, and where other settings live
Last updated September 9, 2026 · 4 min read
The Account → Preferences page has three parts — a font-size slider, a voice-input language, and a Tutorial Center for replaying guided tours. Other settings you might expect here (language, dark mode, editor layout) actually live elsewhere — this article maps them all.
What the Preferences page has
Account → Preferences has three sections:
Display → Font size
A slider from "Small" to "Large". It adjusts text size site-wide — including panels and AI-generated content. A "Preview" box below shows the effect live.
For long-form writing, a slightly larger size is easier on the eyes.
Voice input → Voice input language
Dictation has its own language setting, separate from the interface language. The default is Follow the interface language; change it when you write in one language and dictate in another — a Traditional Chinese interface with Simplified Chinese dictation, say.
Tutorial Center
Replay any guided tour, or reset everything to start fresh. Tours are grouped by Studio (Writing Studio, …); each is marked Done / Skipped / Closed / Unseen, with an arrow to replay it. "Reset all" clears every tour's state so they play from scratch again.
Where the other settings live
Many people expect language and theme to be on the Preferences page too — they're not. Here's where each one is:
| What you want to change | Where it is |
|---|---|
| UI language | The language button at the bottom of the bookshelf (My Works) activity bar. It shows the short code of the language you are on — "EN" in English, 「繁」 in Traditional Chinese, 「日」 in Japanese → 繁體中文 / English / Español / العربية / 한국어 / 日本語. Every language is listed under its own name, whatever the interface happens to be set to, so you can always find your way back |
| Dark / light theme | The 🌙 at the bottom of the bookshelf activity bar; the "Dark mode" icon at the bottom of the editor activity bar (see Activity Bar) |
| Editor layout (line width, font, etc.) | Adjusted inside the editor, not in Account |
| Notifications | Account → "Notifications" (see Notifications) |
| AI Memory | Account → "AI Memory" (see AI Memory) |
| Public byline | Account → Overview, the "Public byline" card. This is the name that appears on your public writing-journey page, on provenance certificates and in the mail Slima sends you; leave it empty to use your account name. A certificate that has already been issued keeps the byline it was issued with — editing the field later does not rewrite it |
This article describes only the settings actually present today. Slima is still under active development, and the Preferences page may gain more options later.
