[Framers] Font Size in Index Marker Pod (FRMAKER-2451)

[Craig, Alison]

But there does seem to be a difference in the font tracking/kerning - and it's much more readable in the 2015 version.

OK, this makes more sense. If you have a 4K screen, then you will definitely
see a difference between 2015 and 2017. But the way I read Dave's original
post, this isn't the issue he is referring to. He considers the text in the
2015 Marker pod to be too small and it's not because he is using a 4K
monitor. On other non-high resolution monitors, he will see no size
difference between 2015 and 2017.

Here's a comparison of Marker dialogs in FM2015 and FM2017 at default size
on a 4k monitor. My results are similar to Stefan's. Pixel real-estate of
this and similar dialogs is increased by 4x in FM2017.
