Is there a setting that will update my breakeven/trail settings after adding to initial position...so that they adjust based on average position instead of first position...

While adding on to winners avg position increases and initial adjustments are not as desired.

Yes this already happens. Make sure you are running the current version:
Software Download: Fast Update

You will also see an entry in the Trade Activity Log for the order indicating this is happening:
Trade Activity Log: Viewing Historical Trade Activity

Confirm you see that entry when scaling in. It will contain the text "Updating move to breakeven stop reference price".

We plan to do some additional testing related to this but have not yet gotten to it.

In regards to font sizes, you need to adjust the Size of the Subgraph which is controlling the text size:
Chart Studies: Subgraphs Tab >> Line Width

I did not adjust any settings...

when I updated to newest version and opened my chartbook the text on the profiles had increased...a window opened after the install said the download occurred with errors. I reinstalled and same thing.. text on profiles is too large and distracting...

Unsure where the adjustment to reduce font size...does not respond

You need to adjust the Size for this particular Volume by Price Subgraph:
Volume By Price Study: Volume Numbers Text Color and Size (SG7)
