Some FP2003 questions from former FP2000 user

[Birk Binnard]

After doing some work with FP2003 I've noticed some functional differences
from FP2000 which puzzle me:

1. The font size used in the folder & file panes (as well as others) is much
larger than that used by FP2000. Is there a way to set the font size FP2003
uses in these panes to a smaller size?

2. In Preview mode, FP2000 would follow links in the page being previewed.
FP2003 does not do this. Is there a way to make FP2003 have "active" links
in Preview mode?

3. A FP Component hit counter in a FP2000 web page worked OK on a server
that does not have the FP extensions. But the same page published from
FP2003 breaks the hit counter on this same server. Is this expected
behavior?

4. One of my websites contains a set of pages with thumbnail images that
reference full size ones. (A standard web photo album generated by
Photoshop Elementsd actually.) All of the pages and references work fine,
but the FrontPage Broken Links report identifies all the thumbnail images as
having broken links (even though the links actually work fine.) Is this
expected behavior?

5. My system has an LCD monitor running at 1600x1200 resolution and 65K
colors. The FP2003 toolbar images all look fuzzy to me. I am using the
"small" toolbar icons. Switching to large makes them way too big, but they
appear even fuzzier that way. Is this expected behavior?

Thaks in advance for whatever help anyone can provide.

FP2003 works best at 1024 x 768

This is issue create by a IE updates and effect FP2002 as well.

Technically, the FP Hit counter should have only worked on a server that has the FP extensions.

4. One of my websites contains a set of pages with thumbnail images that
reference full size ones. (A standard web photo album generated by
Photoshop Elementsd actually.) All of the pages and references work fine,

Yes, FP is not able to manage or verifiy hyperlinks within scripts. This has been same in all
versions.

Thanks. Not exactly what I was hoping to hear.
