Did a search and can't find the answer! New computer and can't remember how to enlarge text! Thought it was Control...and roll the wheel up but nope. Is there still a way?
These old eyes need help.

For me it is control and wheel down.....

You can change your display settings through control panel as well.

 

Thanks, Got it. Kind of delayed response on mine...but it works! Works on everything but the post text??

Been playing with Display all weekend and can change everything BUT Message Text?? (It's a new Dell notebook, but with XP.. not vista) Could you post,PM me, if you know my mistake)

RJ

 

Control key and mouse wheel should enlarge all text, including text within a post. Works even in Linux.

 

That's what i remembered also! Strange...everything but message text changes??
Something on the computer is locking all message text (all programs) to one size... and it's small!

RJ

 

Are you using Internet Explorer or Firefox?

 

Works with XP Pro and Firefox. No problems here at 1400x1050 Resolution either!


What's wrong RJ, getting hard to see?

No Foxfire that I know of so....?

Chris- Can still see the 1/4 pole. what else matters!
Problem is I can't read the Tach.... without cheaters on.

Actually it's strange. Control & Wheel makes signatures bigger than text??


RJ

 

When is the last time you updated your Firefox?

Not sure but I think they came out with a new version sometime late in 1986

 

Like I said...works great here, the seeing thing, and the control + wheel scroll!
Only the signatures are a bit smaller than the posts!

Hey Boss, I'm being serious.... New computer and not a master nerd. Should be newest Foxfire...no?...whatever that is.

Going nuts for 3 days just trying to get it looking something like my old one!

Not quite ready for the 'magnifying glass' set up available in "Accessibility Options" for the handicapped.

Sorry about cracking the joke with you Rowland, just trying to lighten up my monday here a little bit with some weak humor

Click on the help button at the top of your browser and check for updates, it is possible that the version you have isn't current. I am running Firefox and it works just ducky with the control wheel trick.

Another thing to consider is your mouse and it's programming. It may not be set up to work in that fashion, but you should be able to change it's options if you can find them

 

Thanks. I got the humor anddid not mean to sound critical. Just don't have time or patience for this kind of stuff.
Like I said above, Control/wheel works.... on everything BUT the post text??
Did a 'search' in start menu and found no Foxfire??

RJ

 

It's called Firefox, and it's a browser that does NOT come installed on your computer from the factory. You would need to download it from Mozilla.org and install it. As for the text issue, that's something that you'll keep having to mess with until you get it right. I'm not sure what version of IE you're using, but there is options to change the font sizes in the menu.

 

Thanks.....It's installed! Will figure it all out sometime this yr!
