Scaling the Text

Post by eddieballgame »

For those struggling to read the "fine print", try this.
There is a fix for us 'old eyes guys'.
This worked in FoG II also.
In the main dir/System folder is the 'font text file'.
Open it & adjust the 'height' numbers.
For example, try setting the minimum height numbers to 14.
Depending on your monitor size, there are numerous sizes to try.
Good luck. :)

Thank you so much for this. Your great idea has made it possible for me to read text that was just too small. We tried setting the minimum size of everything to 14, and it made a huge difference.

Regards,

Changing font size can easily be done. Changing the color of a particular element, it can be done, but then you are into modding.

Bonjour Thierry
Pour changer la couleur d'un texte en particulier, il faudrait éditer un fichier texte, mais cela ne concernera que le seul mot qui a changé.
