Resizing text

T

Terry

I tried to set my text size to 200%. It makes text larger but it also
makes the menus too large for the screen.

I am trying to set it back to large which is 120% My problem now is
that the display properties box has the apply and ok buttons off the
screen.

I can press alt-space and can move the window up to be able to see the
buttons but when I move the mouse to click on them the window jumps
back to the top.

Can I make larger fonts without having this monumental display problem?

I can't even change it back.

The Enter key should work to record the change.. if not, press the Tab
key a couple of times till the proper button is highlighted, then press
Enter.

Do not change the Screen Resoluton as it will effect every object of the
Windows. Set a good resolution first like, 800x600 for 15" and 1024x768 for
17" etc.

Do you want to increase the Text Size for every object or in a particular
application. For instance, you can increase the Zoom in Microsoft Word and in
Internet Explorer using the View menu and that will not effect any other
application. If you want to increase the Text Size for every object in
Windows then lowering the Screen Resolution can do this but which is not
recommended as it will make things tougher.

You can play around with Apperance of Display Properties for a specific
result.

1. Right-click on your Desktop and choose Properties
2. Click Apperance tab and then click Advanced button.
3. Note down the current value and change the Items properties accordingly.
Like Icon Text Size etc.

Hope this help, let us know!
