i am using a led tv as a monitor and it stands about 6 ft from me and adjusting the scale to its max is not enough. is there a way to make the ui a little bit larger?

im afraid it is not what i am looking 4. i am satisfied with the way my bars look, what i would like is have a bigger text font for the chat and the quest windows. changing the font size in windows does not help.
i can read the text but it is just a tad too small for comfort.

Lower your resolution until the scale looks good to you. You can do this through the game or through windows. Be sure to keep the ratio the same though (16:9 likely).

yes it works, but only in full screen mode. in windowed modes there is no change with any resolution. it seems like a shame to lower the resolution, but i must say that it does not bother me at all. i just turned the quality to high or highest.
thank you again

No problem. Honestly it would bother me too, to have the resolution lower than it "should" be, but this is what I do when i wanna play games on my tv from the couch. Never notice a difference other than bigger ui.
That's weird about windowed mode though. But i never play windowed so I wouldn't know about that... Perhaps there's a fix for it though if you prefer it.

Chat boxes you can right click on the tab and change the font size. The quest boxes I'm not sure but maybe a quest addon provides this option.

I'd recommend fontifier. Located here,
http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/fontifier
it may be old, but still works great, and can be used to enlarge text without changing other aspects of the ui in general. Been using it for years on my 42 inch and my girlfriends 40 inch lcd tvs.

Haven't seen this suggested yet.
Move anything
. Find it on curse and probably other sites. It allows you to move and scale the different elements of the ui. I'm thinking maybe to enlarge quest box/font as well as even player frames.

This is because in windowed mode, you are using your desktop's resolution, not the in-game one.

I'm a bit late to the game here but I came across this post when searching for something similar and have found Storyline to be a great quest addon. It changes the way you interract with most 'chat' style conversations (doesnt alter the actual vendor interraction). Much easier to read the text on my lcd tv I use as a monitor (similar to op setup).

A bit late is a month or two, not 5 and a half years :D
Sounds like an interesting add on though, I've been toying with the idea of altering my set up.
