Font size?

16 years ago

Somehow the font on the GW has become tiny...is it me? My computer? And if it is me how do I change it?

Something about holding something down and repeatedly clicking something else?

On your toolbar, if you are using IE, go to View, Text Size, then click on Medium. You can also do it with the scroll wheel on your mouse by clicking and holding Ctrl while you turn the scroll wheel. Half the time that doens't work for me, so I find going in through the Tool Bar works better.

Go back to the tool bar and choose View on the upper toolbar. When it opens up Choose Text size . A little menu with increase or decease will pop out. By choosing increase and do that a second time you can increase the font size for the session you are reading emails. You would have to do this every time you read email I do that two times to increase the size for eyes too. I think it is about a 120 increase. At least it is on the Sea Monkey browser I use.

Bob, When on the web surfing I like to sit back from the monitor with my feet up on the corner of the computer desk and the keyboard in my lap. I have my FF display set at Franklin Gothic Medium 20. It works much better than the default. DA

Hi, Genes. I don't have a scroll wheel or a mouse. Just a touchpad. I tried holding down the control key while running my finger in different directions over the touchpad - and also while hitting the right or left touchpad key - and also while hitting the directional arrow keys. Nothing changed. Any other things I can try? This also happens on google search pages. So it's a google thing. my other tabs - sites - are fine. Unfortunately that means that when I click on help from gmail - I get these teeny unreadable pages. Thanks. Lynn.

I'm having the back/double click problem. Very annoying. Don't have the text size problem though. I use Firefox with the Zoom Text Toolbar add on. With that you can change the text and it will stay that size. When you come to a site that has too small, or too large text size you just click the Icon on that Tool bar and it changes for that page. It is a great help with my vision problems. Check it out. Sue Here is a link that might be useful: Zoom

Did your zoom (view, zoom) maybe get messed up? There's also some font selections under tools, options, content, but I confess I don't know what they do.

Mine is tiny too. But I use the wheel on the mouse and hold down ctrl and make it larger.

Oh yeah-cool, I just tried that! I have an add on that "remembers" what level of zoom you set for various pages, so I don't have to adjust mine too often. I think I've done that ctrl and roll the mouse thing by accident a time or two!
