Font size for password prompt on UEFI bootloader is very small

Use efi shell and "dcscfg.dcs -gl" or PlarformInfo to view list of possible resolutions.

Set it in DcsProp

<!-- GraphDevice 
  -1  - initialize + autodetect
  -2  - ignore
  <n> - number in list of devices (see PlatformInfo or use DcsCfg.dcs -gl )
  -->
  <config key="GraphDevice">-1</config>
  
  <!-- GraphMode 
  -1 default (see PlatformInfo. or use DcsCfg.dcs -gm <n> to test)
  -->
  <config key="GraphMode">-1</config>

Note: It is better to test via efi shell

Thanks a lot for the swift reply, much appreciated.

What resolution does the VeryCrypt UEFI bootloader choose by default?

Does it use the highest possible resolution detected? Or does it use the native resolution?

When doing DcsCfg.dcs -gl on the VirtualBox EFI Shell, it lists very high resolutions which are not actually being used though (the VirtualBox EFI boot seems to use 1024x768 for everything - DcsCfg.dcs -gl lists much higher resolutions though).

So how does the VeraCrypt UEFI bootloader know which resolution to select? It seems to use the native resolution by default? But how does it know which one is the native resolution?

Boot loader does not change resolution selected by EFI. Mode is selected by BIOS developers.
