Question

How can I show text for Safari menu buttons? Was this option removed?

When glancing, the menu bar is now a mystery to me. I hope this option wasn't removed, as I prefer to have options.

Best answer: how to bring text back to Safari Menu bar. Did I miss it in Preferences? Is it hiding in System Preferences? Accessibility?

Begrudgingly acceptable answer: That the option is removed.

Unacceptable answers: mousing over and waiting several seconds to see ?text. Please don't reiterate this option, as I personally hate it. This is of course a matter of opinion. So let's not debate it.

BONUS POINTS: How do I resize the Safari Menu Buttons to be larger so I can see them? I'm using a 17" laptop screen with 1920x1200 and I keep a drawing tablet distance away (getting farsighted anyway).

THANK YOU

I think this goes into the "Begrudgingly acceptable" category but I don't think there has been an option to show those labels in Safari since maybe Safari 4 around 2009. I could be wrong about that. On a more positive note, you could make the suggestion/provide feedback to Apple at https://www.apple.com/feedback/safari.html

Do you think there is a way to create a style sheet that affects the size of the buttons? Maybe constantly displays alternate text?
