I hope I am understanding the question. If not, clarify what you see and what you want to see with code and screenshot
B4X:
Dim xfont As B4XFont=xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT, 18/access.GetUserFontScale)  'reset font to default after user changed accessinility
B4XTable1.LabelsFont = xfont
'the 2 lines must be set before defining table columns

For the header labels use this:
B4X:
Dim xfontH As B4XFont=xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD, 18/access.GetUserFontScale)  'reset font to default after user changed accessinility
B4XTable1.HeaderFont = xfontH
For the search field use this code. For this, you need to put is after the columns were defined not before.:
B4X:
B4XTable1.SearchField.TextField.Font = xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT, 16/access.GetUserFontScale)
Please be more clear and give more details and code to help us help you, if you need additional help

They need to be placed in the correct place in the code. I tested them on my B4XTble and they work. The header code has to be before you assign the B4XTable columns, for the search it is after. If you want to attach a project, provided no sensitive data. some of the members including myself will take a look, or you can show with code where you placed these lines in the code.
Without Resetting AccessibilyFont:
B4XTable1.HeaderFont = xui.CreateDefaultBoldFont(24) 'header

With Resetting AccessibilyFont:
Dim xfontH As B4XFont=xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD, 24/access.GetUserFontScale) 'reset font to default after user changed accessinility
B4XTable1.HeaderFont = xfontH

Devono essere inseriti nella posizione corretta nel codice. Li ho testati sul mio B4XTble e funzionano. Il codice dell'intestazione deve essere prima di assegnare le colonne B4XTable, per la ricerca è dopo. Se vuoi allegare un progetto, non fornire dati sensibili. alcuni dei membri incluso me daranno un'occhiata, oppure puoi mostrare con il codice dove hai inserito queste righe nel codice.
W enza Ripristino AccessibilyFont:
B4XTable1.HeaderFont = xui.CreateDefaultBoldFont(24) 'intestazione

Con il ripristino di AccessibilyFont:
Dim xfontH As B4XFont=xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD, 24/access.GetUserFontScale) 'reimposta il carattere sui valori predefiniti dopo che l'utente ha cambiato accessinility
B4XTable1.HeaderFont = xfontH

sorry for the delay, User data are fake :)

now header font is correct,
but i have a error when set the search font

Here is the complete corrected project. Tested and works after a slight tuning. You needed to check the B4X Views library in the IDE library pane. It was not checked. Also, you needed to add a Sleep(0) immediately after you load you main layout to allow an internal B4XTable layout to be loaded.
B4X:
Sub Globals
    Private B4XTable1 As B4XTable
    Private StateColumn As B4XTableColumn
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    Dim access As Accessibility
    Dim xui As XUI
   
    Activity.LoadLayout("main")  'You also need to check the B4X Views library
    
      Sleep(0)  'Needed because of an internal layout has to be allowed to load first. Line Added by Mahares
  
    B4XTable1.Clear

    B4XTable1.HeaderFont = xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT_BOLD, 14/access.GetUserFontScale)
    B4XTable1.LabelsFont = xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT, 14/access.GetUserFontScale)

    B4XTable1.MaximumRowsPerPage = 15
   
    StateColumn = B4XTable1.AddColumn("Human", B4XTable1.COLUMN_TYPE_TEXT)
    StateColumn.Width = 30%x
   
    StateColumn = B4XTable1.AddColumn("Dog", B4XTable1.COLUMN_TYPE_TEXT)
    StateColumn.Width = 30%x
    StateColumn = B4XTable1.AddColumn("D1", B4XTable1.COLUMN_TYPE_TEXT)
    StateColumn.Width = 30%x
    StateColumn = B4XTable1.AddColumn("D2", B4XTable1.COLUMN_TYPE_TEXT)
    StateColumn.Width = 30%x
    StateColumn = B4XTable1.AddColumn("D3", B4XTable1.COLUMN_TYPE_TEXT)
    StateColumn.Width = 30%x
    
    B4XTable1.SearchField.TextField.Font = xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT, 6/access.GetUserFontScale)
    B4XTable1.NumberOfFrozenColumns = 2
   
    Dim data As List
    data.Initialize
    For i = 1 To 15
        data.Add(Array("Mario Rossi", "Pluto", "5,5", "3", "2"))    
    Next
    B4XTable1.SetData(data)
End Sub

There are several views in the header panel besides the search box text field. You have to go through all of them. As an example:
B4X:
B4XTable1.lblNumber.Font = xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT, 14/access.GetUserFontScale)  'this is for the number showing as the page you are looking at
There are other views like: : B4XTable1.SearchField.lblV, B4XTable1.SearchField.lblClear, and others like the arrows, etc. which I did not look at. At this stage, you can follow up and perhaps, someone can take a look at your project accessibility further.It may not hurt to add this at the end: B4XTable1.SearchField.Update
Here are all the views hierarchy in the hidden B4XTable layout
I added this a few minutes later as an example for the labels inside a panel (PnlPages) that is inside pnlHeader. You can try it. It reduces the size::
B4X:
For Each v As B4XView In B4XTable1.pnlHeader.GetView(2).GetAllViewsRecursive
        If v Is Label Then
            Dim x As Label=v
            x.TextSize=24/access.GetUserFontScale
'            x.TextSize=24
        End If       
    Next

Maybe something like this will work better for you as far as the header panel views: See comparison with accessibility in effect and not in effect screenshots I tried them with a textsize=20. You can try different sizes.. You can see the difference.
B4X:
For Each v As B4XView In B4XTable1.pnlHeader.GetAllViewsRecursive
        If v.Tag Is B4XFloatTextField Then
            Dim y As B4XFloatTextField =v.tag
            
            y.HintFont= xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT,20/access.GetUserFontScale)
'            y.HintFont= xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT,20)
            
            y.LargeLabelTextSize=20/access.GetUserFontScale
'            y.LargeLabelTextSize=20
            y.Update
        else if v Is Label Then
            Dim x As B4XView=v
            
            x.TextSize=20/access.GetUserFontScale
'            x.TextSize=20
            
            x.TextColor=xui.Color_Blue
        else if v Is Panel Then
            Dim z As B4XView =v
            z.Color =xui.Color_Cyan
        End If
    Next

Ci sono diverse visualizzazioni nel pannello dell'intestazione oltre al campo di testo della casella di ricerca. Devi passare attraverso tutti loro. Come esempio:
B4X:
B4XTable1.lblNumber.Font = xui.CreateFont(Typeface.DEFAULT, 14/access.GetUserFontScale) 'questo è per il numero mostrato come pagina che stai guardando
Ci sono altre viste come: : B4XTable1.SearchField.lblV, B4XTable1.SearchField.lblClear e altre come le frecce, ecc. che non ho guardato. A questo punto, puoi dare seguito e forse qualcuno può dare un'occhiata più approfondita all'accessibilità del tuo progetto. Potrebbe non essere male aggiungere questo alla fine: B4XTable1.SearchField.Update
Ecco tutte le gerarchie delle viste nel layout nascosto di B4XTable
L'ho aggiunto pochi minuti dopo come esempio per le etichette all'interno di un pannello (PnlPages) che si trova all'interno di pnlHeader. Puoi provarlo. Riduce le dimensioni::
[codice]Per ogni v Come B4XView in B4XTable1.pnlHeader.GetView(2).GetAllViewsRecursive
Se v è etichetta allora
Dim x As Label=v
x.TextSize=24/access.GetUserFontScale
' x.TextSize=24
Finisci se
Avanti[/codice]

[codice][/codice]

Dosen't work fine for all elements of interface, when write filter search, it's very, very little.

Is it possible disable system size from my app?

or get the system size different from standard and write a warning message?

is it impossible manage in this mode
