How to change displayed font size in calc?

I've got a user that has the following problem... The fonts inside of certain spreadsheets are too small for her to read easily. I'm looking for a way to set a default magnification value for her in StarOffice.
As it stands now, the screen resolution and the StarOffice UI magnification are appropriate for her. However, she has to access spreadsheets that other people create, and the fonts inside are too small for her. It's quite a hassle (as she deals with large quantities of them) to change the "view" magnification for the spreadsheet each time she opens its. Even if she does that, it's lost the next time she opens the file (she doesn't edit, but just views). If she did save it, then the font would just be too big for the next user (and that doesn't solve the problem of all the new ones that won't be changed).
So, unless someone has a different way of approaching it, I'm looking to find out how to change her StarOffice setup to override the view magnification stored in the spreadsheet and replace it with a default of her own!
Thanks,
Brian

That's exactly what we're trying to avoid. This user pops open spreadsheets hundreds of times a day, just to grab a couple numbers off of them. Having to do the view/zoom thing becomes a significant slowdown.
I ended up solving this with the help of the oooforums people who gave me a script that automagically changes the view/zoom whenever my user opens a spreadsheet.

  • How to change the font size of text element in smartform

    Hi
    i want to know how to change the font size of text element in smartform
    regards
    Gincy

    Hi
    You can create Smartstyles, in which you can define paragraph formats for texts and character formats for character level changes.
    Paragraph format ---> alignment, font size etc
    character format for ---> superscript, subscript.
    After creating, in your smartform, there will be a option in the text element to enter a style.
    You give the created style and you can use the paragraph and character formats i that style.
    Hope this is clear..

    Do this with each field.

  • How to change the font size of Text box tool ?

    How to change the font size of Text box tool ?
    I am using Acrobat PDF 6.0
    Tools > Advanced Commenting > Text Box Tool
    I need to know how to change the font size. The default font size is too big.
    let me know
    Thanks

    I do not have AA6 available right now (I can check at home this evening). I am also using AA Pro, not Std. In AA7, there is a text box tool that is a commenting tool. When I started typing, a properties toolbar came up that had the font size and such. I haven't figured out how to get the toolbar after the fact. In AA8, I selected the text box tool and then went to view and selected the properties bar (the font size and all showed then), or use Ctrl-E when editing the text. I have not been able to figure out how to edit the text in a text box after you have created it - think it is a mental block right now. Bill

  • How to change the font size in sap scripts?

    hi friends,
        i had a query regarding to SAPSCRIPT.
      how to change the font size of a text in sap script form in which it should change it  dynamically.
    is it possible to change the font size dynamically in scripts.
    one more query regarding to this only.
    i need to get the hard copy of a script .
    what is the transaction code to get the hard copy?

    Hi venkata,
    You can specify the font size either in the Character format or pharagraph format.
    You better decide it according to your requirement.  If you want to apply the same font size for the entire form create the Paragraph format and give the paragraph format in the default paragraph format.
    If you want to apply that to limited text, then create character format.
    The process of creating it is just after going inside paragraph format click EDIT-> Create Element and give the font size.
    This applies for character format also.
    Reward points if useful.
    Thanks,
    karthik

  • I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    I like the mail feature with one exception; I cannot figure out how to change the font size of incoming mail permanently.  And, when answering an email I have to highlight the first few words and zoom it so I can see what I am writing.  what am I missing?

    You can type the email using what you set in preferences and then highlight the text and use command - minus sign (or command - + for larger) to reduce the size of the text.
    You can also type command - T and a window will appear allowing you to select fonts/sizes/color/ background highlight.
    The above works in Notes also. I haven't tried to do this in any other Apple application.
    For incoming emails, you can use the above to reduce font size, but I don't know of a way to permanently set the incoming font size to a default.

  • How to change IR font size (only) dynamically

    Hi,
    On blog http://www.danielmcghan.us/2009/01/that-font-is-too-small.html, there was a nice example how to change IR font size on the fly.
    Some how seems that this is not working new Responsive 25 theme, which is not having "td" . So could anyone help me.
    I'd like to add some saving ability to some table (user preferences table) ... sou please expand that example if possible.
    For that I made it on Apex cloud demo: FONT_SIZE_ADJ_APP
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=2354
    Login data:
    UN : guest_admin
    PWD: Qwertz123!
    THX in advance for your help.
    Brg,
    Damir

    Th actual code from the working example looks different from the blogpost
    May be worth trying this code (in your page template)
    <td style="white-space:nowrap"><span id="decreaseFont">(-) </span><span id="saveFont">Save</span><span> / </span><span id="resetFont">Reset</span><span id="increaseFont"> (+)</span></td><u>For saving this into a custom user preferences table:</u>
    - you can amend the application process RETURN_NOTHING to insert/update using the item FONT_SIZE_ADJ
    And add computation to set the value into FONT_SIZE_ADJ from the user preferences table for the first time when users login

    2 on the post_change trigger for 'font_size' i write this code
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('customer_name',FONT_size,(:font_size);
    i write 12 then then font size changed , then i write 18 , the size does not change. and when i write any value , no change happens. I do not know why

         END IF;     
    no change happend at all.
    please help

    Hi friend,
    it's a really really strange tip... May be it's a Forms bug? I've tried with set_item_property..and.. you're right, it doesn't work..
    So.. you can try making this:
    - create a visual attribute with an specific font size....
    - use the
    SET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY('block.item',CURRENT_RECORD,VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE,'you_visual_attribute');
    and call it from psot-change....
    It works
    Hope it helps,
    Jose.

    Hi Anna,
    depending on the UI element there are a range of ways. (and I'm sure people will post plenty of answers to tell you how).
    However, if generically the fonts in you portal/wd applications are too small, you should consider changing your theme so as to have larger texts. Otherwise you will either need to customise all your applications, or you will get quite a lot of inconsistency of presentation between your various WDA applications.
    Do a search on "themes for Web Dynpro ABAP" and you'll find loads of resources.
    Hope this helps,
    Cheers,
    Chris
