Custom On Screen Icon Size

How do you adjust the icon size on Windows Vista?

Chuck

Folder icons and desktop icons? Yes. Two ways:

Press either CTRL or ALT (I can't remember) and spin the mouse scroll wheel,
or
On explorer windows, click on the top blue bar "Views", and select the size.

You can "Ctrl+Mouse Scroll" to change desktop icons size as well as cycle
through predefined views in Windows Explorer.

Also works in I.E. for text sizes.

It's CTRL (same goes for within folders as well).

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

I was pretty sure it was ctrl, but I didn't have a scroll wheel mouse to
test it on at the time

Of course, no sooner did I just ask this question in a different thread that
i found it was already answered right here, figures LOL

Umm, where are you all finding your information at though, it would help a
lot to know where to look for these off the wall subjects so that I won't
have to pester anyone here for things that everyone already knows about,
except me?

Thanx...............md
